GDQuest has this awesome little intro course / program they coded in Godot itself which is pretty rad.
https://gdquest.itch.io/learn-godot-gdscript
Give it a shot and see what you think! :)
Also of note: KidsCanCode and GameDev.tv are fantastic for beginners as well.
I'm still quite the awkward newblet with coding, but I've been taking GDQuest's "From Zero" courses and they're awesome. They've had a huge hand in shaping the current engine documentation and stuff too.
Hope that helps you get started a bit more confidently! :)
I love when something is technically written in itself. Look at GCC (C compilator) - it is written in itself (although it was written in Assembly in the beginning). It just feels like a great feedback loop.
it's called bootstrapping. I agree it's a very interesting concept
