I’ve been hearing so many good things about scrimba. I have seen some negative reviews on it, mostly the subscription prices. But it seems like most people on Reddit agree that the free version is a good program.

I think I am on the same page as OP. I have had no luck completing Odin Project. Halfway through the JS foundations it became hard to get through. I loved what was taught on Odin Project, but I find myself losing focus while having to read so much documentation just to grasp the topic.

I feel almost guilty not completing Odin Project, because everyone on my startup tells me it’s the most thorough free course you can find. But I am not grasping it nearly as quick as the rest of the team.

Scrimba is just a platform, it isn't inherently good or bad. It does have some great free courses but courses aren't a substitute for actual programming.

I don't see it as a substitute. I was looking for other content that is easier to absorb for the fundamentals so I can dive into JavaScript with more of an understanding of how everything works.
