Enjoyed part 2 today Caitlin.

Something I'd suggest checking out/looking at. The Odin Project (TOP). I have done a number of introductory lessons on html, css and a little JS from places like Udemy, FCC, Coursera, Udacity and probably a couple others. TOP seems like the best one I've come across in this journey of being self-taught. I'm about 30%? into their Intro and I already feel like I've learned a ton. They want you to set up a Linux environment to code in (unless you have a Mac already) so that you're learning command line which feeds directly into learning GIT. Both of these things appear to be key but a lot of classes/learning outlets skip them. Another reason for Linux (or a Unix based OS) has to do with Ruby and Rails.

Whether you check that out or not, keep up the good work from one self-learner to another! I'm trying to take notes so I can start doing something like what you're doing, you've inspired me ;)
