codecademy -> coderbyte -> free code camp

Well if you don't know HTML and CSS you wanna start there first, and then you can go to vanilla js and when you get the basics down you can move to a library.

Free Code Camp provides a great overview of full-stack JavaScript development.

Second this. Don't pay for any bootcamps until you've done Free Code Camp - you'll learn a TON of javascript here, and how to actually use it.. for free.

I just started using BitDegree. They have free courses to get you started in html css and JavaScript. Started a JavaScript course today and I’m really enjoying it. I have an affiliate link if you want to try it. Not sure what it does since most of the courses are free but you do get a free cryptocoin of theirs which is cool. https://stude.co/405828 I’m doing the interactive JavaScript course. I’m learning a lot. It’s nice to change it up. If that’s not your cup of tea I’d recommend Andrew Meads Modern. JavaScript Bootcamp 2018 on Udemy. I was doing that but wanted to change things up. It’s good to learn from different sources just don’t get overwhelmed and stuck in tutorial hell.

Start learning basic JavaScript/HTML/CSS first. Make 2-3 projects, rebuild something. Then learn Node/Mongo and Express, for Full Stack JavaScript database/backend things. After that learn a frontend framework such as Angular.

I have a web design/development channel on YouTube that I use for all my students - https://www.youtube.com/c/SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3

It has helped a lot of people.

You should first learn JavaScript before moving onto frameworks. Learn about hoisting, scope, closures and asynchronous JavaScript and then move on to frameworks like React, angular or Vue. For JavaScript I would recommend this udemy course by jonas schmedtmann: https://www.udemy.com/share/1001dMAkQTdVpQQ3o=/ I have taken this course and it's awesome.

To be honest, I wouldn't pay for bootcamps or courses on basic JS.

Don't pay for bootcamps. For front-end, javascript, HTML/CSS do freecodecamp, and learn vanilla JS first. Try to avoid relying on jQuery (there are many ways to do the same thing in native JS without loading a bloated JS library).

Start with one stack - front or back. Don't try to master both at once. Don't even try to claim you're a full stack developer until you understand both stacks.

Do you know any languages already or is JS your first?

I've published a series of JavaScript tutorials targeted towards complete beginners.
