OrganizedFellow Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 For years I called myself a web developer, without really knowing much JavaScript. Where are some good sites I can start my journey? Prefer something that has be building projects as I go. I'm decent enough with HTML & CSS + PHP, but JavaScript is my weakness. I found these while searching: forces me to a credit card page, disappointing => https://www.codecademy.com/learn/build-interactive-websites just leads to a 3.5 hour YouTube video=> https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/learn-javascript-full-course/ but was wondering if the community has some other suggestions. 1
OrganizedFellow Posted December 21, 2020 Author Posted December 21, 2020 OH, also found Eloquent JavaScript and I'm currently just starting reading it. It's a daunting task ?
kongondo Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 I take it you mean vanilla JavaScript? Here's a short list of candidates ?. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLillGF-RfqbbnEGy3ROiLWk7JMCuSyQtX https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLillGF-RfqbZ7s3t6ZInY3NjEOOX7hsBv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcQyJ-gxke0&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9jx2TTZk3IGWKSbtugYdrlu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWOYAxlnaww&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9haFPT7J25Q9GRB_ZkFrQAc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l3bTDlT6ZI&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9i5yvDkJgt60vNVWffpblB7 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIORjGvT0kk&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9gfoKa5la9dsdCNpuey2s-V https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Mp2kwE8xY0&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9gKfw25slm4CUDUcM_sXdml https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxWMxJONp7E&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9jAhrjtZ9U93UMIhnCc44MH https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Mp2kwE8xY0&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9gKfw25slm4CUDUcM_sXdml https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANDyf6VEYHE&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9gdqHxcUgGhl_cV6xET1_0N https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoSksQ4s_hg&list=PL4cUxeGkcC9i9Ae2D9Ee1RvylH38dKuET 4
pwired Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 Quote For years I called myself a web developer, without really knowing much JavaScript. Good point, as many took the road without javascript like me. Lately I am catching up with "talking to the server without page reload" (ajax - XMLHttpRequest) I left treehouse and moved to udemey.com as I experience them more professional/friendly and they have a lot of offers. https://www.udemy.com/course/the-complete-javascript-course/ 3

qtguru Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 If you really want to get into JavaScript, I will also advise Nicholas Zakas book Advanced Javascript for Advanced Developers, it teaches about ES6 , classical approach and the true nature of JavaScript, most teach ES6 from the beginning which is wrong to me. 1
