Amplenote as an all-in-one productivity app

Previously I've use a combination of Microsoft's One Note/Obsidian Note as note taking apps and Todoist as a task planner app to get things done, but because of how clunky it is and the set up time required to integrate these apps to work with one another, I was kind of overwhelmed when all I wanted was just to have a note taker/task planner in a calendar for me to work without thinking of what to do

Amplenote is basically all of these apps I wanted to work together with put into one
currently I'm in the process of learning how to use it, already I'm making task in the notes willy nilly, even in mobile(which I feel like Obsidian note is kind of lacking in because of how it doesn't have widgets showing my notes/to create notes[I have researched how to make it so I can make a widget for obsidian to create notes, but it's too technical for me to follow it so I kind of just dropped it])

Best of all it comes wth its own calendar, and it allows me to drag-and-drop my tasks into the calendar, no fuss no nothing

Their system of note taking and task managing is pretty cool too

Jot up an idea->put it in a note->write a task for that note->put task in calendar

it's just so streamlined right off the bat that it just feels...amazing to use.

Thinking of returning to web coding/coding in general

I've tried my hand at coding for 3 years in a Vocational school and self taught myself on how to make a website using pure html css and JS before, went into a pay-by-experience internship that helped me learn some libraries and frameworks(bootstrap and react/vue.js)

After having burnouts, and the fact that I didn't get much recognition for how many hours I've put into this career, I decided to quit, having all my muscle memory wasted away

Few months later I decided to get an internship job, lo and behold it's web design again, but at that point my muscle memory is already gone so I opt to use Wordpress to support me in making a website for this start up company, and because I was just a newbie and my boss didn't know how much effort is put into paying someone who made/manage your website for 3 months, I got payed really poorly, so I decided to opt out of this job aswell

So far in my life this career that I picked has taken a lot from me, but given little in return, but recently I realized that coding and web creation/management is the only thing I know how to do with any degree of competency

So recently I am thinking of returning to coding to try my luck at it again, specifically web design/management, I've already know how to make a website in wordpress, have a good plugin base that makes it extremely easy to make a website and manage it, but other than that my coding skills are back to square one

Is there any resources you guys can spare to help me return to form with coding, any is helpful.
