What is a coding language that is easy to learn for a beginner?

1•The_MeatMaster•1h ago
I've been thinking about creating my own app and want to know what coding language is easy to learn and work with. Me having no coding experience other than a half-assed class in middle school, I would like to learn basics of coding and other essential skills for app coding. Any tips?

Python is often mentioned when this question is asked.

What OS and what dev tools? If you want an iOS app for instance Swift FTW. If you want a ground up education in programming, then C. Quick entry might be Python.

Not sure what dev tools, I use Ubuntu cinnamon on a mac (lost macOS to a hard drive failure).

Have a look at flutter.dev. It is a multiplatform app development environment. The have instruction materials for beginners.
