Thank you for that post. I have 2 things to add.

Postman has changed a lot. It was simple and easy but has become an overengineered solution. Now you can try Bruno: usebruno.com/, which is very simple and fast to use.

I would also add Manifest : manifest.build, a 1-file micro-backend that works with any frontend. As usebruno, it allows a quick start and is very easy to use.

I would like to add:

ApyHub APIs: apyhub.com/catalog for finding and consuming APIs instead of building these utilities from scratch.

ApyHub also comes with its own native client, Fusion. apyhub.com/fusion/

Public APIs: publicapis.dev/

I'd also add W3 schools as an excellent site for learning fundamentals and gaining industry recognised certificates.

So first off amazing information coming from a beginner in coding. I have recently been struggling to find places to go to help me. I stumbled across a couple of these just looking around, but I’ve always wanted an answer to. What was more beginner friendly to help me learn or just even just practice? And you help me a lot with this information thank you.

You're very welcome! 😊 I'm so glad you found the post helpful!!

FreeCodeCamp - It starts with the basics (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and gradually moves to more advanced topics. Plus, it’s free and project-based, so you’ll learn by doing.

LeetCode - starting with the "easy" problems can help you practice problem-solving and build confidence.

HackerRank - they have beginner-friendly coding challenges and tutorials. It’s great for practicing and getting used to problem-solving in programming 🤓
