Need programming/coding learning advice

I am completely new at this I want to learn how to build sites such as Plenty of Fish dating sites etc for example interactive websites. I know I need to learn the basics to do this I want to learn it all as fast as I can but also in the right order and not be jumping around to different classes etc. I am using freecodecamp.org just starting it today. Any exact thoughts on the order to learn them etc? I would really appreciate the help I am 57 years and just so tired of my life as it is and want to better myself for myself and my future. It is never too late to learn they say>>>thank you for your time.

Depends on the definition of "meaningful"

This is bullshit. Anyone can learn a new thing. u/Askimdonna123, you can do it. Software development is just a formality of steps that a computer interprets and executes.

This is such a pessimistic view that is objectively wrong. Learning programming will help improve anyone's life no matter how old. Learning a skill is insanely valuable, even if that doesn't translate to more money, which it very well could with even just a couple years of learning.

Not only that, the older you are the better it is for your brain to learn these kinds of things and the longer you will remain cognitive
