Hey, awesome that you have started learning web dev. Happy to help you, for roadmaps I would recommend roadmap.sh. It's a site that provide roadmaps for not just web dev but other topics like AI/ML, DevOps etc. Youtube is the best when it comes to free video resource for learning web dev. I would recommend FreeCodeCamp as a starting point. For tips, 1. learn to read error messages. You will encounter errors regardless of, if you are learning or working at some job. Learn to read and understand those errors, because that's how you will solve those. 2. Decide what you want to do. Web Dev is a rabbit hole and you will have learn skills that may not be related to web development like designing(yes, you would have to learn this) if you decide to focus on front end or learn cloud if you want to learn backend. Focus what you want to do and go deep into it. 3. Learn a tiny bit about the other end. If you decide to focus on Front end, learn a bit about backend and vice versa. This will help you understand the other side and you would be a much better developer. Sorry for the long post, hope this helps you.
