Exactly. I recommend something like Codecademy to absolute beginners because it helps build muscle memory and gets your fingers wet. It helps you pass that initial mental paralysis where you're staring cluelessly at the screen. Codecademy needs to double down on these benefits and specialize for beginners (while making their limitations clear) or launch follow-up tutorials to help people advance and actually build real-world projects.
