- Short exercises make a daily habit easy
- The energy limit can stop a longer free session

Start with the question you actually have
- 01Is Coddy Pro worth paying for?
Start free: Pro only makes sense once energy limits keep interrupting sessions you already do daily.
- 02Which language should I learn first?
Python is the gentlest general start, JavaScript puts results in a browser, SQL is the quickest route to real data.
- 03What should my first project be?
Something small: a first project usually takes 8–12 weeks at 30 focused minutes a day.
- 04Can you learn chess on Coddy?
Yes. All 134 lessons are free; the padlocks mean “do these in order”, not “pay first”.
