Changed from ColdFusion to C#. I was able to stretch minimal C# exposure during a contract into enough experience to convince someone to give me a full time gig where I was able to learn on the fly. I did pick up some bad habits that I had to unlearn as I gained more experience.
Lots of good technical starting points here. I don’t want to prematurely discourage you, but before you get into any code, evaluate your problem solving abilities. If that is an area you struggle in, work on that first, or at least in conjunction with programming basics.
I’ve worked with engineers who have all the code skills, but when faced with a complex issue, struggled to break it down into it’s simplest components and wound up with a messy, over-engineered solution.
This isn’t an endorsement for brave, but the websites aren’t loading properly because they are full of the trash that brave blocks, not due to bugs in the browser.
I feel this in my bones.
