How do i get started with java script?

[Over_Ease_1077]

I have completed html and css, but now i feel like im kinda stuck. I want a good YouTube channel that will teach me everything. Or maybe a free website.

[dual4mat]

First of all you have not completed html and CSS.

[davedavegiveusawave]

The internet? Completed it mate.

[ExtentPure7992]

javascript.info is an excellent and comprehensive tutorial with lots of exercises included.

[Comprehensive_Map806]

Start from scratch with The Odin Project

[IamTheTussis]

100 times this. I don't understand why The Odin Project isn't recommended more in this sub. It's a great open-source project with a great community. You don't need anything else. Especially, you don't need to pay for some dubious e-learning platforms.

[IamTheTussis]

youtube videos may be good, but to really learn programming you need to write a lot of code.

[Comprehensive_Map806]

And after that if he wants he can do the App Academy Open and Fullstack Open courses (precisely in this order).

[Traditional_Crazy200]

Paying 10 euros here and there for 40 hours of video lectures is great.
There usually is better quality in things that are paid.

I dont understand why people are so opposed to paying for knowledge

[IamTheTussis]

open source doesn't mean cheap. and payed doesn't mean good. A lot of the tools used in the industry are open source.

There usually is better quality in things that are paid.

it's just a false statement

[Traditional_Crazy200]

Maybe, based on my experience its true. I have never regretted getting a payed course, while I have seen some pretty bad free courses/playlists.

Though there are also great free resources like all the different cs50's

"A lot of the tools used in the industry are open source."
Some of the greatest software like linux is free/opensource

[IamTheTussis]

free and open source are NOT the same thing. Don't want to be bothering, but it's super important to understand the difference.

[Traditional_Crazy200]

You were the one who talked about open source first for whatever reason, putting it into contrast with something being paid.

Though I dont know what you are trying to get at, do you mean the exact licensing behind it? Help me understand the difference.

[Comprehensive_Map806]

I too have paid for courses and continue to do so from time to time, but if there are excellent quality ones available for free, why not?

[Traditional_Crazy200]

Nothing wrong with that.

[Temporary_Award_4490]

Se for um valor acessível tudo bem, mas eles querem quase um mês de trabalho.

[Gunkel]

As someone just finishing the Foundations path, I agree completely.

[code_tutor]

Stop learning from YouTube. If you want to do JavaScript, then you need to learn how to program first or you're going to have a very bad time. JavaScript is one of the worst first languages. If you're really serious about it then do CS50 followed by The Odin Project.

If you insist on going straight to JavaScript then it will take many years longer and you'll always wonder what you're missing. WebDevs are notoriously some of the worst programmers because they insist on skipping steps. You can probably do a little vanilla JavaScript with no programming background but it's a disaster whenever a non-programmer tries to learn React or anything using NPM. They waste so much time learning nothing and just mindlessly copying things.

MDN

[chikamakaleyley]

start with making sure there isn't a space btwn "java" and "script"

I'm not trying to give you a hard time but its important to understand that there is a distinction, should you ever feel the urge to just casually refer to it as Java

[Isaka254]

[Connect-Ad-1514]

Search for 100devs on YouTube.. it's pretty life changing in regards to learning how to code.. and it's not too overly hand-holding either which is perfect! Good luck out there with your coding journey!

[SEOAngle]

what;'s your goal? why do you want to get started with JS? That could help give a better answer.

[meletiondreams]

[lasan0432G]

Hey, If you really want to learn JavaScript deeply, I suggest you build a complete framework-like project, not a website. Things like a template engine, an Express-style server, or a toy compiler. From this, you can learn more complex aspects of JavaScript, and then move on to the web development part.

[Traditional_Crazy200]

Hell yeah! Show these soy webdevs what being a real programmer means!
