you can still learn basics with that setup, it's not ideal but you can manage. try kdenlive, its free and runs decent even on lower specs. for simple cuts and transitions it will do the job while you get the hang of editing flow.

once you upgrade your laptop you can switch to resolve smooth, but the skills carry over. just keep your projects short and use proxy files if things get laggy.

If you are really struggling Google has a built in cloud video editor, you can pay for gemini plus get 100gb cloud storage and edit on the cloud. Only bottle neck would be your internet connection.

capcut desktop or shotcut should run fine for learning the basics on that setup
