Learning coding is good but computer science will make u a better programmer. Check out OSSU, open source society university, a complete computer science curriculum for self study.

See here on github:

Please, I am an 'old-picker'(I picked interest in programming at old age). Challenges are there because I work and I have chance mostly on weekends. Though, I think I have little knowledge on HTML and CSS, though I do run to W3schools for materials anytime I start doubting what I know.
The above is same with me but I have 0 knowledge of javascript, would like us to connect. If we can have a project to work on weekly basis for now. We can just start with a landing page or better still if bosses in the house can help us with projects.

Opportunities in the career of python are increasing tremendously in the world. Since Python has simple codes, faster readability capacity, significant companies are in demand for the python language. Python to be an excellent tool in designing progressive ideas. Candidates interested in python increases every day.

So I suggest you Learn Python and gain all skills in that particular language and I am sure you will succeed.

Python isn't a stand alone language, learning just Python is a waste of time for a beginner except he/she wants to go into data science

Please, I am an 'old-picker'(I picked interest in programming at old age). Challenges are there because I work and I have chance mostly on weekends. Though, I think I have little knowledge on HTML and CSS, though I do run to W3schools for materials anytime I start doubting what I know. This is the problem; I have completed JavaScript on Mimo and Sololearn but still very empty inside. Whenever I am reading it, it all look familiar and simple but once I close the page, I still go back to being empty. Can somebody ever be expert in JavaScript (Not expert in the context of knowing everything in JavaScript)?

Programming is fun. And I have fallen for JavaScript but it seems I love it more than it loves me. I am now addicted to reading source codes.
Right now, I am thinking of picking php or python. I have not done any major thing with what I have learnt so far. Php because of BackEnd. I don't know what that means but i feel good anytime I use it.

var myQuestion = ["php","python","C++","Java","c#"];
var myPreference = myQuestion[0];
alert(" I love "+myPreference+ " so much!" ) ;

While W3Schools is great and you can learn offline, use FreeCodeCamp mostly because of their active community - it's like the beginner version of StackOverflow.

And FreeCodeCamp's YouTube page is a goldmine for anything computer science. SimpliLearn videos are good too and even longer, especially if you intend to earn a certificate after you learn each skill.
