So, I think my answer is a little different but: first decide what you mean by Web Development. These days it isn't really one thing, but an ecosystem of technologies. Secondly, inventory what you already know -- and tell us. Now one has a basis for recommendations. To put it another way, if I think you are a beginner who knows nothing, I might recommend the most "mainstream" system. So a nodeJS backend and react front end, or whatever TIOBE tells me is dominant right now. I would recommend this even if I don't use it, trusting the crowd to be wiser than I am. However, if you told me you have been studying python for 10 years (or however old python is), and you love it and have it all set up, I might recommend Django or something. Once you know what you are learning, there are many (many, many) courses on almost anything you want to learn. Even there I would trust to the wisdom of the crowds. The most highly rated book on Django on Amazon is probably more relevant to what you would do, probably contains better practices, and is probably won't break compared to what I happen to have on my shelf that I have read. Once I do all that, I look at: Udacity, Coursera and EdX to see if they have the subject I want, and I audit the course. (And in that order). The Udacity web development courses were, for me, a revelation. Finally, have a project in mind and use git.
