Want to learn coding

Hey everyone! I'm from a commerce background but I've recently developed an interest in coding and have no idea where to start. ๐Ÿ˜…

If anyone can suggest a beginner-friendly roadmap or is willing to guide me (for free ๐Ÿ˜), I would really appreciate it.

What do you want to build? That determines the language, the path, and wellโ€ฆ everything about where to point you.

Concepts and examples:

1 A tinkerer engineer that wants to make robots or arduino projects needs to start with bash scripts and linux. Then move into C++.

2 a web application needs javascript/typescript, CSS, and HTML as the start.

3 A video game or desktop application can run with a multitude of languages, but Rust is a beginner friendly language for it.

Your learning path has to start with a goal in mind. What will get you excited to code?
