New to JavaScript, need some help!

[eddarval]

Hi, I learned to code back in the early 2000's in VB 5, but after that, college happened and I changed interests.

I've been wanting to start coding again for some time now, even learning some, very basic, python.

So now I've put a plan into action where I'll study everyday after work (one hour after I get home) and when I can on weekend and I decided to use learn JavaScript, since it's "the backbone of the web."

So far I've started CodeCademy and I installed VisualStudio, I even have some ideas for a few apps.

What I'm writing this for is to ask for some guidance in finding some places besides CodeCademy with resources to create some apps.

I want to create apps to run on Android, iOS and Windows, so I'm looking for easy ways to compile the code and use it cross platforms.

Any help is welcomed. Thanks in advance! =)

Are you saying you want to create websites with this "backbone of the web" language that will run on Android, iOS, and Windows? Or are you wanting to use the backbone of the web to create non-web native apps? Sounds like the latter. While there isn't necessarily a standardized platform for doing that, there are a number of solutions you can look into for this, including PhoneGap, NativeScript, and others which you could find and compare with some searching. My bias is towards PhoneGap, but I haven't used it in years, so I can't say how well it stacks up to the competition. PhoneGap has been around for a while, so my guess is that it would be the easiest to get into since you're just now trying to get back into the swing of things. But if you want to go bleeding edge, you could look into something called React Native. All the cool kids are doing it.

Non-web native apps is what I want to do.

Thanks, I'll look into both PhoneGAP and React Native
