# Introduction

This post contains a collection of resources that I've found useful on my career path of teaching myself full stack web development. I hope for this to be another way to help others find a way into tech.

Each course listed can be found on Udemy. They have some amazing instructors, along with almost weekly sales that bring course prices down to at least $15. I'v listed them as $10 because there is NO REASON why you should pay more than $15 for a course here other than to support the instructor.

# Full-Stack

These resources contain content for Full Stack development. Stuff like Node, Express, React, JavaScript, CSS, and HTML.
