Where does one begin coding

Where does one begin coding? On the notepad on a laptop? And after coding , how do you run it? Also, is there need to do any special thing to let your laptop know what language you are coding in?

Christian you can use notepad on a PC to write HTML and other code. There are also other editors like Sublimetext which you can download. You can also use editors in full Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) like Eclipse. You will have to download these. How you run the programs depends on the language. As you know what language you're using, you have to use the appropriate tool. HTML is a markup language that is read and displayed on a Web Browser like Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer. Compiled languages like Java, C, C++ etc. can be compiled and run by an IDE like Eclipse or on the command line on Linux, Windows or MacOS. So the short answer to your question is, "It depends." 😁 But as bobbie said you can start on the Code Playground in Sololearn. Happy coding!
