Instead of encourage people, I am here to discourage you a guy, who started / want to start web development.

The start

At the start your journey, you install either sublime or vscode or notepad++, then you start to make a website using HTML and know that HTML is a HyperText Markup Language. You feel proud of yourself as your HTML page is displayed in google chrome. Then, you color your page with CSS and make your page interactive with alert() and document.write().

framework hell

Slowly, you think you are very good, then you heard of React or Angular and you immediately jump into it. In the blink of an eye, you are overwhelmed. What the hell is Webpack? What is JSX? What is Nodejs? What is typescript? What is npm? What is Sass? Why a simple website need so much technology with weird names?

server-side programing

At the verge of giving up, you heard of database and server. You install XAMPP or WAMPP and then start poking around with PHP. You also play around with expressjs. Then, you are once again overwhelmed. What is composer? What is a session? What is phpMyAdmin and MySQL?

game development

After you learn one or two things, you think desktop application and game development is cool, so you install Unity. Oh my, Object-Oriented Programming in C# (pain in general). You think that ElectronJS is easier and want to give it a shot but because everyone critisize that it is less performant so you give up.

linux

Then, you heard that people keep telling you "I use Arch, btw" and "Vim is the best editor". You watch a few shitpost from Mental Outlaw (on youtube) and decided to install gentoo linux. You are once again overwhelmed. Why so much command (cd, touch, ls, emerge, time, ifconfig, vim and etc.)? Systemd called as soystemd? OpenRC? Init system? GNU and Linux is different? Display server? X.org vs Wayland? dwm vs bloated Gnome?

lower-level programming

Then as you get used to the tty and know how to edit some text in vim. You start to do some C and C++ programming. Although the OOP from C# or Java helps, you still feel overwhelmed. CMake, Ninja, gcc, tcc, clang, llvm and etc.
Maybe you also step on some assembly language and suffers.

Ok I will stop now. All these painful learning + failing + imposter syndrome + mental illness is all because of you decided to install sublime / vscode to create a HTML page.

In conclusion, don't create your first HTML page.
