If you've never coded a day in your life, getting started has two facets: Learning how to code, and learning a language to code in. They are two intermingled but quite separate topics. Python would get you on the road a little easier, and then once you're at a walking pace, pick up Javascript.

Javascript requires more infrastructure and setup (for any kind of framework at least), there are more layers to it and more things you need to learn about if things go arse-over-apex. Python is literally just running a command line at the CLI, plus a simple package manager.

With all of that said, Gary's not wrong, and all that matters is that you pick *something* up and get to coding! Enjoy!
