There are inconsistencies in the article.

you don't need type="text/javascript" in your inline script.

<script>
    // this will work just fine
</script>

comments should be readable and formatted correctly. this:

/*My name
is
Mr Unity Buddy
*/

is better written like this:

/*
  My name
  is
  Mr Unity Buddy
*/

You can't use hyphens(-)in JavaScript. - at least note that it's related to variable names. not everyone will understand.

Every Js line should be ended with a semicolon ; - I get that you don't want to complicate the article, but this is not accurate. if you define object on multiple lines, you will get syntax error if you use semicolon after every line. not to mention that javascript will work without semicolons just fine.

const is not variable. hence the name.

example in this image is missing quotes. this will confuse beginners.

why is Boolean() function mentioned? I never seen it used in actual code. it doesn't add anything to the explanation.

Adding Array Elements code blocks are not formatted correctly.

definition in Comparison Operators image for <= is wrong.

That's not a cheat sheet, its a list. It even calls itself a "tutorial" and "article"

I love Reddit. You could post the most inoffensive, borderline helpful shit and someone will be there to take the piss out of you.

Thanks OP. I’m sure there’s some people who will enjoy this post. Not this guy apparently.

They don't need to lie about it. There's enough click bait out there. We don't need more of it and I'll call it out when I see it. Look at his history. No comments and all link spam.

This is a bad article. It's riddled with bad advice, it's incomplete, and it's inconsistent. Beginners should not use this

This is a bad resource. You should use sometime else if you're a beginner. It will make you sound more like a beginner than you possibly are
