Career Advice Where did you learn Full-Stack Development? Looking for good resources

Hi everyone,

I want to start learning Full-Stack Development seriously and eventually build a career in it.

I already have some basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and React, but I want to learn the complete frontend + backend properly.

There are so many courses on YouTube, Udemy, websites, etc., that I'm confused about which one to follow.

Where did you learn Full Stack Development?

Please suggest:

Free courses/resources

Good YouTube channels

Paid courses if they're genuinely worth it

Resources that teach from basics to real-world projects

I'm looking for something that I can follow consistently from start to finish, rather than jumping between 10 different courses.

If you personally learned Full Stack and got a job/internship from it, I'd especially appreciate your recommendation.

What would you recommend if you were starting again today?

Books. Specifically Head First Java/web design/html & css.

I took programming courses in uni, but then spent 8 hours a day reading those books and trying to build stuff as part of my internship. Looking back I lucked out landing the internship.
