I’m a beginner and want to learn web development. Should I start with The Odin Project, MDN, or freeCodeCamp?
Which free resource should I start with for web development?
Answers
The Odin Project is a good choice if you want a structured path with projects and practice outside the lessons. It expects you to look things up and solve problems yourself, so it can feel less guided, but that’s part of the learning.

freeCodeCamp is a straightforward place to begin if you like guided lessons and exercises right in the browser. Pair it with MDN when you want a deeper explanation or need to check how a web feature works.

MDN is excellent reference material, but I wouldn’t use it as your only beginner course. It’s easier to learn from it once you have a specific question or some code to work on.

Don’t get stuck comparing platforms for too long. Pick one main curriculum, finish a few small projects, and keep building. You can switch or supplement later if the format isn’t working for you.
