Would The Odin Project be a good starting point? (www.theodinproject.com)

I am looking into getting started in web development and I came across The Odin Project. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to pay for a course right now. I currently work in a senior desktop support and systems admin role and I am seeking to pivot into web development. Is this realistic? What advice or websites would you recommend for me? Thank you very much in advance!

It's an excellent resource. Go ahead and get started.

Thank you! That's the plan on Saturday. I reserved a study room at the local library so I can buckle down and put in some time.

It's more important to work each day than to do a lot of work in a day. Spend a bit of time to work out a schedule for yourself that includes about an hour a day to work on things.

That's indeed a better approach!
