I would recommend learning JavaScript. W3Schools will supply you with lots of great tutorials and there are many Youtube-videos out there dedicated to learning it. To start off with, you should consider using Codecademy as it is both free and easy to use when trying to learn programming as a beginner. As well as this, you get to see your projects work in a browser when using JavaScript, which might be a familiar environment to you. I would say that the whole beginner process is much smoother if you're trying to learn JavaScript than if you were to learn other languages, simply because you can jump straight into it and see results very quickly. This is something I found hard with other languages as a beginner. Good luck! Ps. I would advice you to use a text-editor like Brackets if you start learning JavaScript, as I personally find it very easy to use.

I'm a newbie here, as you. I begun to learn programming with the HTML. After I finished the courso, which happenes recently, I took a look on the others codes to see if there was one that I would find interesting and kinda easy to learn, but as I'm beggenning - as you - I didn't find :S. So, I remembered from somewhere that I don't remember (maybe from the html course) that the html is used to work with two other languages, which are CSS and JavaScript. I don't know if I'm wrong, or if I'm following the correct path. If you want to start learning at solo, without having a bad impression of proglramming, I suggest that you begin with the HTML, then you go to the next course, which is CSS, and then JavaScript. P.S: You can choose other courses of courses, and the order that stated above you can choose to trust or not. For example, after I finished the HTML course, and I begun the JavaScript course because I thought it was, and actually is, very usefull when you want to give dinamically or "life" to your html site. Obs.: I just set the order html-css-javascript, because I think, that in this order, you'll enjoy more the knowledge that you'll acquire. Good luck for you during your courses👍😄.
