Moving from Unity/C# to ‘full web stack’

I need to learn the basics of HTML/css/php/JavaScript in 2 weeks before I start my internship. Anyone have good advice? Tips? Perspective?

I'm curious why you only have 2 weeks if your internship is in regards to this? Most people are actually trained in whatever internship they're getting prior to it, so I'm just a bit confused by your situation. Also, why the transition from Unity/C# to that? Game programming is a lot more fun imo but to each their own. lol :D Anyways, to answer your question, there isn't any shortcut to it. You have to read through the language and then practice them. https://www.sololearn.com/Course/HTML/ https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CSS/ https://www.sololearn.com/Course/JavaScript/ https://www.sololearn.com/Course/PHP/ ^Go through the courses and complete each one. Honestly, if you dedicated a whole day, you could easily finish each of them. You'll gain further understanding beyond the basics when you practice, work on projects and obviously when you do your internship. My good advice: Finish the course even if you don't fully understand yet. Practice what you can remember. Go through the course again but this time write down notes of anything you don't understand still. Use your notes to extensively research what you still don't understand. Practice it. Repeat that process until you don't have to write anything down on your notes. ^That's the method I use to master every language I've decided to focus upon. If you stick to it, you'll be able to properly learn/practice what you're wanting. You have 2 weeks, so you can easily progress all of those skills if you don't waste your time being unfocused; use your time wisely and grind at it until you start your internship. That means things like YouTube, TV, games, Facebook, friends, sleep, Discuss on SL, etc... isn't more important than what you're saying that you want. If those things are more important, you'll never become as successful as I'm sure you want to be; make sure you have your priorities straight.

AgentSmith I live in a small city with very few oppertunities for entry level programmers. I have a (good enough) protfolio of apps w/networking using php and SQL as it applied to my unity apps. the company that hired me as an intern set the start date 2 weeks from now. I guess I interviewed well enough that they trust me to learn the needed materials as I go.
