Jay's personal goal: Immerse an adult into programming to get a feel for if they want to pursue a career or not.

Online mostly-self-teaching recommendations I received:

• http://eloquentjavascript.net/ + the first https://nodeschool.io/#workshoppers workshop for first steps. "The Eloquent JavaScript inline live examples/REPL are pretty great." (thanks @tehshrike)
• https://www.freecodecamp.org (thanks @matt.heller)
• http://codecademy.com (thanks @josh_collinsworth)
• http://javascript30.com "ES6 but not a beginner thing" (thanks @josh_collinsworth)
• https://exercism.io/ maybe a little less beginner (thanks @travi)

Other maybe useful resources:

• 2019 StackOverflow Developer Survey
• 2019 HackerRank Developer Skills Report
• Bureau of Labor Statistics May 2018 National Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates
• TripleByte How much money do Software Engineers actually make? - vast majority of datapoints are from major markets?

https://scrimba.com/ has many free tutorials. Scrimba's tech allows you to pause a screen cast and experiment with the code before continuing.

http://REPL.it is a nice online editor that lets you quickly write programs in many languages.
