Ok, I like the idea of learning C to develop a programming language, so I might start with that. Thank you for the advice! ✨

Maybe I have a really bad English (and if that’s the case I want to apologies), but here is what I was trying to say:

Learning some C is interesting. (It’s always interesting.) But I believe you should focus on Java since it fits much more with your current background and will allow you to progressively move on to even better technologies.

This especially applies if you’re motivated to pursue a career in web development. (Or at least, something which requires programming at a higher level of abstraction than C.)

Now there are alternatives. You should start by stating what you’re trying to accomplish.
