How'd you learn JavaScript? And how would you do it better?
I wanna learn JS and I want to see what the best way to do it would be. Now shoot!
You can start the Javascript module on freecodecamp It's pretty good, starting from fundamentals and going to semi-complex algorithms and now even some frameworks (React). Here is the link: https://learn.freecodecamp.org/javascript-algorithms-and-data-structures/basic-javascript
If you want something more serious (like a book) you can try https://eloquentjavascript.net/ that's very good. And the web version if free!
Enjoy your journey!
The good news is that JS is very popular today. To get a grasp of language features, syntax, etc the above mentioned tutorials will work.
I found egghead.io to be a nice resource as well once you grasp the basics.
I am also currently live streaming using vanilla JavaScript to build a nodejs app with no frameworks if you're interested:
I guess that depends on your level of programming experience, but I can't recommend the The Web Developer Bootcamp highly enough. It covers a lot more than JS, but it gave me a good foundation for both front and backend
Yes, definitely go through the freecodecamp curriculum for a base. Then just start making. I fund that the best way is to learn is when you actually have to build something with it.
Also very recommendable are the books in the series You Don't Know JS. Also free on Github: https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS
The first book in the series is more of an introduction, so it could be a perfect follow-up to Freecodecamp's classes!!
And most of all, have fun!!
