Where to begin?

I'm beginning the process of learning how to code. I started with the JavaScript basics and felt comfortable with variables, strings, numbers, conditional statements, and functions. When it got into loops, arrays, and objects things started to get a little hazy.

I definitely am going to push through and continue, but was wondering, as a first time coder, if there are other foundational aspects I could learn to better understand the process as a whole.

For web development I'd recommend maybe start out with html and css, and then go for JavaScript.

I found loops, arrays and objects a bit difficult in the beginning too - it takes time :-)
