🔧 5 Handy Websites for Frontend Development Learners and Programmers

I have been a web developer for a few years now. These are some nice sites that I found could be useful for fresh learners and learning programmers.

Some of these sites provide free tutorial resources, while some are resourceful sites full of source code and powerful tools.

Codecademy.com

Codecademy

Codecademy is a good start for programming learners because it offers brief, interactive exercises to teach you how to code. They also have a blog that discusses various programming concepts. This combination of instruction and explanation makes Codecademy a valuable resource for anyone looking to learn to code.

Codecademy offers courses for a variety of programming languages, but not all of them are free. Some courses have a price tag of $19.99, while others are available for free with an account.

The courses in Codecademy are structured in a way that makes it easy for you to learn how to code. Once you've completed a course, Codecademy provides an accreditation that shows your new coding skills. It's possible to find programming-related jobs after completing Codecademy courses; however, the extent of your new skills will depend on the course you took and your previous coding knowledge.

W3Schools.com

W3Schools

W3Schools is one of the most popular online resources for web development education. They offer tutorials, references, and quizzes on topics ranging from HTML to CSS to JavaScript.

Yes, W3Schools is free. You can use it to learn front-end development by following the tutorials, references, and quizzes on the website.

W3Schools can be useful for professional developers as well as new learners because it offers a variety of resources that can be used to learn different programming languages. For professional developers, W3Schools can be used as a reference to look up code examples or to check the syntax of a certain language. For new learners, W3Schools can be used to learn how to code by following the tutorials on the website.

Lightly-dev.com

Lightly IDE

Lightly is a cloud platform that offers a variety of development features for developers. This can help amateur and professional developers to develop their web projects faster. With Lightly, you can quickly create and deploy your project without having to worry about setting up a server or configuring anything. You can also use Lightly's built-in code editor to write your code and debug your project.

One of the benefits of using Lightly is that it makes coding and software development easier and more efficient. With Lightly, you can develop software on your iPad, which makes it a great option for students or professionals who want to be able to work on their projects wherever they are. Additionally, Lightly saves your code on the cloud, so you can access it from any device or computer. This makes it easy to continue working on your project even if you're not at your desk.

Lynda.com

Lynda

Lynda offers comprehensive video tutorials on a variety of software and programming topics, including front-end web development.

Lynda.com is not free - there are a limited number of free tutorials available on Lynda.com, but the majority of its tutorials require a subscription plan. It offers a variety of subscription plans, which give access to all of its tutorials.

Many people find Lynda.com to be an extremely reliable resource for learning new skills, especially in the field of programming and software development. One advantage of learning from videos is that you can see the concepts being explained in action, which can be helpful in understanding them. Additionally, many video tutorials are interactive, so you can practice the skills you are learning as you watch.

Github.com

GitHub

The wholly famous Github is a social coding platform that allows developers to share and collaborate on code repositories. It's an excellent resource for finding open-source projects and learning from other developers' code samples.

There are a variety of open-source projects available on GitHub, including software development projects, web applications, and programming tutorials. You can browse popular repositories on the site or search for specific projects using the search bar. Additionally, you can browse by language or category.

If you're using both GitHub and Lightly, you can also sync your account and run the open-source projects on Lightly. Alternatively, you can also run the GitHub projects on codespaces.

These are the 5 handy websites that I will recommend for learners and even professional developers. Thank you so much for reading my article. I hope you found it interesting and useful. If you did, please consider giving it a like. It would mean a lot to me.

Thank you again, and I hope you have a great day!
