This document gathers resources and tutorials to get into web development.
Subjects are ordered from the least to the most complex. The resources inside though, are just pasted here with no specific order.
The links have a title associated to help you find the subjects you want to focus on. Some resources are in french only, it is specified when it's the case, the link is in green.
Be curious, have fun :)

BASIS FOR WEB DEV

First of all, you will have to install VSCode on your computer. In the extensions tab of the software, you will search for LiveServer and download it. You can also browse into the language extensions if you want your interface to not be in English. Now you're ready to go!

W3 Schools
MDN (FR) or MDN (EN)
Free Code Camp
Udemy → most courses aren't free, but they often do discount sessions where you can get introduction courses in some languages for free, so I recommend you create an account for free and check it up from time to time ;)
