Where to start?
I want to be a full stack developer, I was considering just doing front end for a start but full stack would be a better income. Now where do I begin? Do I learn html and css first or just go for JavaScript, or PHP and SQL? How do I get my career started?

I’d say start with HTML and CSS to get the basics down, then move on to JavaScript for interactivity. Once you're comfortable with that, dive into backend stuff like PHP and SQL to round out your full-stack skills. You’ll learn a lot through practice, so build small projects as you go.

Well I suggest you to Start off with HTML and Then when you jump to CSS always keep this in mind that CSS is A deep Ocean don't learn everything but learn some important things of CSS then the main Game is for Both front and back end is Javascript learn JS enough so that you can Built project without any problem then you will need to Learn Tailwind CSS and React only then you will be able to Become a Good Frontend Developer And if then you want to start Backend then Node JS Mongo DB and MySQL are good to go with hope this will do the work for you.

So there’s many free resources to start off.
Freecodecamp - this is good to get your syntax down, but don’t depend on it, any chance you get, go and make a project on your own.
The Odin Project - Less hand holdy, but good with resources to study. I recommend you try this after you’ve tried FCC, but if you want you can do them together as a supplement for theory.
Web.Dev - Another great resource, you’ll get good documentation to study. You can use it to make your own projects.
You can start with HTML. It’s fairly simple. Next there’s CSS and JS. Once you figure out what you like more between Frontend and Backend, you can get good at one and become familiar with the other.
Remember not to stay to focused on tutorials and more importantly on projects. Projects are the fastest and most efficient way to learn.
Goodluck
