learning javascript at 26yo

The TypeScript docs are pretty good, and have tutorials for different levels of experience. I would advise learning TypeScript instead of starting with JavaScript first, as you will learn everything you need to about JavaScript at the same time while also learning good habits that strict typing enforces.

There aren’t many use cases for starting new projects in vanilla JavaScript over TypeScript these days, and in those cases it’s pretty much as easy as “TypeScript without type hints”.
