Great man it’s a solid course!
If you ever find your self asking for help with something (and NEVER be afraid to ask for help with something!) make sure you tell them your writing Java and not JavaScript! Java and JS are shockingly two different things! So keep that in mind![DOUBLEPOST=1578402414][/DOUBLEPOST]
Don’t worry, I thought the same thing lol...

I actually got one of my friends into coding few months ago, he basically said he wanted to start web developing like I do and it seems like I set him on the right path as he is doing pretty well so far, this is basically what I told him:
1. You need to start off by learning general coding logic, stuff like if statements, variables, booleans and all terms that comes with coding, a great place to start off with JS for example is codecademy, thats where I started yeaaaaaaars ago.
2. Once you got the basics down, you need to start planning on projects you want to build, a good start project is always todo apps as this type of project goes through the most basic logics of coding.
3. When you start on your projects, just split it up into parts on what needs to be done, for example in a todo app you would need a way to add things to the list, a way to remove things off the list or mark them as complete, maybe editing them aswell, a good place and practice to have in the start already is to use trello.com for dividing the work into lists and carts.
4. Once everything is split up and you know what you need to do, but don't know HOW to do it, just google it, thats the best way to learn 100%, just by googling and copying what people do, this will usually make you run into bugs, which you then need to debug which is also a super good practice and you learn even more by googling why issues comes up and fixing them.
Trust me, this is the absolutely best way to learn any coding language, you don't need youtube videos, you don't need guides, you don't need education, I did all of this in the beginning of my career and now I am pretty much fullstacked developer and can jump into any new language super quickly.
Good luck!

Learn the basics on code academy (free) and on w3school, also see w3school's how-to and see how they do stuff using javascript.
You need to start thinking about the JavaScript way.
There are courses on the web that serves this purpose.
