Since I blog, I realized I need to know HTML or PHP code, so I decided to look for some online course in which proves easier to learn for someone with very basic notions of what is programmed. In this search I found Codeacademy.

Carries out a little analysis on this page.

Courses

Have different courses for:

  • JavaScript
  • HTML/CSS
  • PHP
  • Python
  • Ruby
  • APIs


Each course you learn programming is divided into lessons , turn the lessons are divided into steps, such that each step you take is a very small step and so it is easier not to despair. The steps are very well explained and if you make a mistake correct and explains how to do to find the error yourself.

  1. I use it in a while, I met a lot and has helped make me especially with python and ruby, mas nothing to give one initiation.

    I wish someone would be encouraged and put things in java, I know many interested (I'm doing one simple java MVC) the only thing is that there is a section for java…

  2. Hello, I did the HTML on Codecademy. Pretty good experience.
    Respecto a javascript, very bad. I left. It has many errors that do not allow you to continue with the lessons.
    I read an article recommending 5 sites makes 1 month but not finding achievement for other programs.
    In Spanish not get good Php or java.
    Regards!
