OrganizedFellow Posted December 21, 2020 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrganizedFellow Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 OH, also found Eloquent JavaScript and I'm currently just starting reading it. It's a daunting task 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kongondo Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I take it you mean vanilla JavaScript?

pwired Posted December 21, 2020 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted December 21, 2020 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
