Introduction
Hello, in today's post, I will briefly talk to you about the resources you can use when learning programming.
Here, I won't be discussing the platforms we constantly mention, such as Udemy, BTK AKAMEDİ, and Turkcell Geleceği Yazanlar.
Instead, I will mention some lesser-known websites that can provide you with new resources.
Resources
Freecodecamp
Freecodecamp was founded in 2014 and is a free platform with more than 9,000 pieces of content.
When looking at the educational areas it covers;
As you can see, it provides educational content in 15 different fields and also offers free certifications to you (they claim that 40,000 people have found jobs with this).
When it comes to language support on the website, it offers languages such as English, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese.
Unfortunately, our website does not have support for the Turkish language.
For those who do not know the covered languages, translation services can be used on this site, but considering that all the content on the website is in English, I recommend studying English at least a little before starting programming.
Now let's take a look at the content of one of the sample courses:
To begin your education, all you need to do is press the 'Start project' button.
Then, as you can see in the image below, it first shows us the structure we want to create and then guides us step by step
After entering the education, you need to organize the sections on the left step by step.
W3School
"I'm sure most of you are familiar with this site or have heard of it in some way.
W3Schools is a platform that hosts many languages and has a great educational format.
When we look at the languages it contains;
HTML | CSS | JAVASCRIPT | SQL | PYTHON | JAVA | PHP | BOOTSTRAP | C | C++ | C# | REACT | R | JQUERY | DJANGO
The educational structure is as follows;
On the left, there are topic headings, and in the center, there is content presented in a simple manner.
Additionally, W3Schools has its own online editor, which sets it apart.
This allows you to quickly test your projects without needing a local editor.
Our online editor:

Codecademy
Codecademy is a paid educational platform that hosts many languages.
As of the time I'm writing this, it includes the following languages:
Python | C# | JavaScript | Bash | HTML & CSS | C | SQL | PHP | Java | R | C++ | Swift
Additionally, there is also the opportunity to obtain certificates in some courses.
An example of a certified course;
Additionally:
You can learn your skill level from the 'Skill level' section,
Find out the duration of the course from the 'Time to complete' section,
Determine if the certificate is included in the payment from the 'Certificate of completion' section,
And find out if there are any prerequisites from the 'Prerequisites' section.
You can also take a look at the sections about the course and the skills it will provide at the bottom of the page.
If you scroll a bit further down,
You can see the course content.
Now, if you'd like, let's take a look at the prices.
Here, there are three different pricing options available to us.
These are, in order:
Individual
Monthly: $0 | $13.99 | $23.99
For those who want to take a closer look: CLICK HERE
Student
Annual: $149.99
For those who want to take a closer look: CLICK HERE
Team
For those who want to take a closer look: CLICK HERE
Personally, I recommend starting with the $0 package. If you like the course and want to get a certificate, you can explore the others.
Also, a small note: You cannot attend the courses without registering.
Programiz
Unlike Codecademy, Programiz, which is free, also offers education on many languages.
These are, in order:
Python | C# | JavaScript | SQL | HTML & CSS | C | SQL | PHP | Java | R | C++ | Swift | Rust | Go | Kotlin | DSA
Link to the education page: CLICK HERE
When we enter Programiz's education section, we encounter 4 options.
These are, in order:
The Tutorials section provides information about the education. Additionally, there is a curriculum for the education in the lower section
The simplicity and ease of understanding in the design of this section will provide a straightforward learning experience, especially for beginners.
The Examples section contains educational examples.
The References section explains the meaning of references for the language you've learned.
The Online Editor section provides us with an area to write code. It's a very useful section for those who don't want to download an IDE to their computer.
Conclusion
Well, these were our resources in general. Of course, there are many more resources out there, but I wanted to show you a few.
I hope you enjoyed the article, have a great day!
