What do you think about my full stack dev learning plan?
Posted by Honest-Notice7612@reddit | learnprogramming | View on Reddit | 3 comments
I'm a CS freshman at university, and I'm afraid to admit that I wasted this year without actually learning anything useful. I know some very basic c++ and that's it.
I wanted to start learning full stack development this summer vacation and as a total beginner here's my plan :
I saw that TOP was very recommended for beginners so at first I thought i would start with it directly, but then I saw a lot of people say that it's better to learn python first so I was thinking about doing CS50P first and then moving to TOP.
what do you think? I appreciate every comment and any piece of advice, thank you in advance.

What is the purpose of learning Python before doing TOP if you want to learn full stack development?

I saw a lot of people saying that CS50P offers some important programming fundamentals that TOP doesn't. And i don't know why but many recommended learning python before full stack dev so I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone. Anyway, thank you so much for your comment, I really appreciate it.

Honestly it just depends what your primary focus is. Is it web dev? The do TOP. It'll be months of work anyway. Do you care more about the computer science part, so the lower levels? Then do CS50P.
That said, I'm not sure if it goes that much more in-depth, as I've not done it. I would be somewhat surprised as Python is a high level language just like JavaScript. So everything is relatively equally abstracted. Maybe it has a part on C or something.
Just figure out which one you care more about and start. The best course for you is the one you're doing right now. Everything else is just noise.
