My boss told me to start by reading some stuff and try to code. Even if it's messy but works, it's fine. That's when he will consider courses etc.

Do you have any suggestions for reading material?

The CEO of our company didn't go to school for programming, self-taught himself, genius.

https://www.codecademy.com/learn/javascript

https://teamtreehouse.com/

There's also a handful of subreddits if you're on reddit: /r/learnprogramming /r/webdev /r/frontend /r/javascript to name a few.

There are also a few fundamental of comp sci courses you can view on itunes university. All free and it's from stanford.

Feel free to PM me if you've got any questions too.
