My co-founder taught herself web development using online courses and resources. This “Learning Path” outlines the resources she found most helpful, and lays them out in a sequence that a beginner should be able to follow.

We realize this is a curriculum, not the best curriculum. We'd love your feedback on whether this is useful, and what we might change or add.

Also if you’re so inclined, we’d love feedback on our product SlideRule itself (a Yelp-like catalog of online courses), which you can access it by clicking on “COURSES” in the header.

EDIT (based on some of the comments):

We're very encouraged to see the response to this.

1. On which other subjects would you like to see such Learning Paths?

2. If you're interested in helping us build more learning paths (on any subject), we'd love to hear from you (in comments here or at founders@mysliderule.com)

There are lots of free udemy courses that teaches web development. Here's the link: https://www.udemy.com/courses/Technology/?view=grid&price=fr... You need some digging to find the courses that interest you, but it's well worth it.

We did look at Udemy, and in fact include one of their courses in the Learning Path. Are there any others you think we should include?

This is a great idea. I'd love to see something like this for other topics such as Data Science, Digital Marketing, Lean Start-Up, Marketing Strategy etc.

I'd love to help/contribute to the marketing related courses if you decide to expand your subject offerings.

I would also mix in Jeffrey Way's tuts for HTML, CSS, and jQuery. (They say 30 days but you can do them each in less than a week.)

This looks great! It reminds me of this Google Doc I put together a while back, which you are free to copy/draw inspiration from. And I've already added this page to it, so that should already be a good lesson on recursion :p https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jlJCxNG7XyCPpUNRybH1b2Pb...
