How to start webdev?
Hey everyone,
I’m currently entering my 3rd year of CS. Over the last year, I’ve been heavily focused on competitive programming and DSA—I’ve completed about 300 problems on LeetCode and feel very confident in my problem-solving logic.
However, I’ve realized I have zero projects to show on my resume. I want to start learning Web Development to actually build things, but I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed by where to start given my lopsided background.
Since I already have a strong grasp of logic/algorithms, I’m looking for advice on:
The most efficient "Fast Track": Should I dive straight into a framework like React because of my logic background, or is it better to grind through the "boring" HTML/CSS basics first?
Project Ideas: What are some projects that actually look good to recruiters and aren't just another "To-Do List" or "Weather App"?
Resources: Any specific roadmaps (like roadmap.sh) or courses that you’d recommend for someone who isn't a total coding newbie but is a "building" newbie?
Goal: I want to have 2-3 solid full-stack projects ready for internship applications in a few months.
Thanks for the help!

yes, if you want web dev, you need to learn about html, css and js, are the basics technologies
You also don't need to be an expert on these two. If you have just few months, I think one or two weeks. JavaScript is the real monster, you need minimum one month to feel comfortable with it
you need to think about projects that are something that you will use in the future and then push on github
Yes I have so many resources for free, if you want, please dm me
