I'm trying to get into backend programming and I've been working on Python for about a few days now. It's been pretty straightforward so far, and I've even got a sorting algorithm up and running by day three. I have some prior coding experience, which has helped me pick things up quickly. My friend is learning JavaScript, and we're having a friendly competition to see who can build a better website first. We're curious about how long it might take to learn SQL if we dedicate the next couple of weeks to it — we set a deadline of just over two weeks for this challenge. We'd love any tips on where to start learning SQL and any useful resources you recommend. Thanks in advance!

Make sure to look into ORMs for web development as well. Django is a solid choice for Python, or you can try Flask with SQLAlchemy. Knowing SQL is still super beneficial for understanding what's happening behind the scenes, and W3Schools is a good place to kick things off.
I've been enjoying courses on boot.dev; they’re split into bite-sized lessons you can easily tackle during short breaks. It’s a great way to learn at your own pace!
For starters, check out this handy video my brother found really useful when learning SQL: [URL](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0nxCDiD-zg). It breaks things down nicely!
You could definitely spend a lifetime exploring databases, but since you already have a grasp on Python, you could be ready to use SQL in just a week or two. It really depends on how much time you're willing to put in. Just keep practicing and you'll pick it up fast!
