From coding newbie to startup co-founder   In the beginning, all Jackson Hardy wanted was to learn some basic HTML and CSS so he could custom edit Squarespace templates at work.   Jackson learned HTML and CSS through Codecademy, and quickly moved on to JavaScript. From there, he learned Python, Git, and Ruby—and then mastered the Command Line.   "The most challenging part of learning was I didn't know how to learn it," Jackson says. "The way [Codecademy] 'forced' me to stay engaged was just the push I needed."t. From there, he learned Python, Git, and Ruby—and then mastered the Command Line.   Jackson was applying for jobs as a web developer before he was even halfway done with his first Codecademy course. And just 12 months after he started learning HTML and CSS, he and a friend started their own web design agency: webside.io.   Want to follow in Jackson's footsteps?
