Front-end developers build web pages. Most of that work is in layouts, forms, and colors. For that, start with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Back-end developers write the tools that perform tasks and manage data. For that, start with Python, then you can expand from there. Python is a great first language because it's a utility language and is capable of doing a lot of things. It can scrape content from other web pages, read and write to SQL databases, and tons more. It's an easy language to learn so it's a great place to start. But it is highly capable and used in a ton of production applications. HTML and CSS are not really programming languages, they are mark-up languages. Meaning those languages are primarily focused on how things look. How they are appear on screen. JavaScript is a programming language frequently used to support HTML/CSS pages so it's a natural growth once you know HTML and CSS. When you hear the term "Full Stack Developer", that means they can do both front-end and back-end programming. Front-End is technically easier than Back-End, so if you are worried about how difficult programming might be then HTML is a great start.

It depends on what you want to do. If you're interested in web development, start with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for frontend development. If you also want to work on the backend, consider Node.js or Python (I’d recommend Python, as I regret choosing Node.js). For app development, go for either Java or Kotlin. If you want to develop desktop applications for Windows or Mac, choose C++. For backend tasks like machine learning, data analysis, or other similar work, Python or Rust are good options.
