Finished CodeCademy what Next?

Many people take free introduction courses at CodeCademy - often in Python or JavaScript. Many of them succeed and ask "Where to go further". I dare to collect here few links to resources which could be useful to build your knowledge, your career, your future.

For those interested precisely in Web-Development:
- Odin Project - you will learn to build a full-stack web-application with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Ruby
- FreeCodeCamp - participate in working on real projects (though do not expect it would be easy to start - at least you'll need to learn enough new things, like version control system using etc.
Want to have more thorough insight into programming and Computer Science - both academic and industrial? These few online courses are invaluable:
- Harvard CS50 at EdX - you can take it either free or on paid basis to have a certificate
- Object Oriented Programming in Java by University of Helsinki
If you do not feel yourself familiar with general programming, simple problems, basic algorithms - the best idea, probably, is to have a practice with coding exercises, like these:
- CheckIO - good site with Python-related problems
- CodeAbbey - just this site, you may use it for any language you want (+ free certificates here)
- CodingBat - short logical exercises for Java and Python
- CodeForces - famous site for competitive programming (puzzles here are hard, but it is a separate world)
Meanwhile get acquainted with professional tools for development. Among them one of the most important is the version control system. And one of the most popular is Git. You can start with this hands-on tutorial. Do not forget to create your GitHub account later (read what you can do with it).
