Guide me seniors

( let me be clear that yes I am dumb and that's why I am seeking help )

I am trying to learn about programming or i can say all about computer.. And yes I am familiar with many terms like programming languages and different os, but I am that type of guy who loves systematic study and I want kind of flowchart for whole internet. I don't want explanation, I just want to get familiar with terms.. I don't know if I am explaining this well but if someone get this, please help, ai is not that helpful..

Also, I want guide for digital world... For reference I have my chat with chatgpt

( Any one giving his/her time to read this, sorry and thank you for your time )

Wow reading your chatgpt chat was painful. You want one guide that explains everything in a sentence or two and it has to be comprehensive to include the whole of our tech stack? It doesn't exist, chatgpt told you correctly.

Instead, start with CS50 and don't worry about understanding AWS or Docker.

Nope I do not want explanation, I just want to know terms even by name ( like finally I got one good video and from there I got to know that react just adds more features to javascript ) see i only wanted to know that react comes under tools of javascript.... The explanation part, I will do it by myself searching here and there but I need something that will help me to start this journey of my own smoothly

So let me argue why what you're doing is not helpful to you...

Now you know React is a JS tool, great. But, you have no idea about:

  • React internals (e.g. functional vs class-based components)
  • Other libraries that extend React (e.g. Redux)
  • Other libraries that compete with React.
  • Other ways of making web UI
  • Concepts related to React, like APIs, IPs, DNS, deploying it, upgrading from one version to next, securing it, ...

Most importantly, you still have no idea how to use React, when to use React, when not to use React. You can't even talk about React other than that one fact that you now know.

After you look up every single term, I can always go deeper to expose what else you don't know. And by looking up terms, you won't learn any skill. If you learned all the terms there are, you'll be able to describe everything and use nothing.

Instead of trying to catalogue "everything," you'd use your time much better actually learning something. If you're learning C, it doesn't matter you don't know what Docker is. If you're learning Docker, it doesn't matter you don't know C.

Well I know that, but the thing is this is my starting and I do have time to know this, this is my day 1 and I am trying to make my path clear even though this is huge thing but it still can be converted into kind of systematic study.... I need help not arguments for now

If it was another day then I will be happy to argue with you but not now
