I already passed the HTML5 course in Codecademy, I enjoyed it. However I'm at an impasse now, should I transition to freeCodeCamp? Yes, it's free, but is it worth it?

I'm highly considering paying for the Codecademy Pro..

What are the difference, strengths and weaknesses of each, pros & cons.

(didn't know where else to put this post).

Any feedback is highly appreciated, thanks.

Yes, HTML5, and that link is to the graphic design forum. Which has nothing to do with comparing the title.

Freecodecamp is more thorough in my opinion with better plans for development. It teaches you that bit more and there's better resources also on their Youtube. You also get your daft little certificates if you do want some form of certification, though it's not quite as good as a classroom taught certification.

All in all freecodecamp is better imo, and also free... You just don't get as much variety with some other languages such as PHP and the likes.

The FreeCodeCamp lessons are meh, as are all "learn to code through tutorial online" programs. But FreeCodeCamp will then push you to do projects, and those are extremely valuable, and where the magic happens. Highly recommend for those.
