I would like to start helping out with some basic coding projects but I am struggling a bit. There seems to be a ridiculous amount of learning resources out there but I am a bit overwhelmed. Does anyone here have experience with any good resources for someone just starting?

MDN and freeCodeCamp are pretty worthy of helping people get off the ground.

Just start helping with the project and whenever you don't understand something, search for it online and keep your eye out for stackoverflow links. You might have to use a search engine that doesn't base your results based on a profile of you if you're having difficulty getting results from stackoverflow.

 

On stackoverflow you'll find many code samples and problems people have had and many different solutions to the problem. It will energize your learning process.

You can use the following operator on Google to search Stack Overflow specifically:

 

site:stackoverflow.com

 

I can't count how many times Stack Overflow has saved my butt in the coding world, it seems like it always has an answer to your concerns.
