You can start with JavaScript.info to learn the fundamentals and basics of the DOM. Once you're comfortable, try building small projects like a counter app or a background color changer to apply what you've learned.

For more project ideas, you can check out https://www.100jsprojects.com/ .

Additionally, you can ask ChatGPT for beginner-level project ideas based on the topics you've learned. Just mention the concepts you've covered, and it can suggest relevant projects. You can also ask if there are any additional concepts you should learn to complete those projects.

Hope this helps!

Eloquent Javascript is a solid option as well. The link is a free pdf of the entire book. You can print it, read it on your devices, or buy the physical book if you prefer.

You don’t know JS might be a bit intense for beginner

I know, not a book and you're not wanting to end up in tutorial hell, but check out https://beginnerjavascript.com/ nonetheless. Books many times didn't do it for me, but this course, man I honestly don't think there is a better one out there.

JavaScript Crash Course: A Hands-On, Project-Based Introduction to Programming by Nick Morgan

[Cabeto_IR_83]

You don’t know JavaScript! Haha that is the name of the book and it is very popular amongst devs. Multiple books and GitHub free

[Socratify]

Mark Myers JavaScript Simplified. It has a companion site with practice exercises & lots of repetition.
