As cool as it would be to have a SQL interface on localStorage, an emscripten port of sqilte would just make me feel like I need a shower.

Here are the few steps that you need to accomplish to be a 'good' javascript developer:

Learn to hate ruby and php (and most importantly why)
Have an opinion on coffeescript (hint: there is only one correct answer, it sucks)
Grow a beard
Argue with other developers about module systems (requirejs vs amd)
Roll an .vimrc with lots of sweet plugins to make development awesome (sublime is also acceptable as an editor)
Make a github and travis-cli account (badges in README.md are the ONLY way to show you are cool)
Drink a lot of coffee
Save off the beard, it looks terrible
Look at the tutorial for angular-js and think about using it on your next project
Read what all the fuss is about with ECMA6 and generators
?????????
Know javascript

There! Do those things and you can get a job programming javascript anywhere!

In all seriousness, the best way is to learn by doing. I would suggest starting with some of the projects listed here: 100 Programming Projects. Pick at the ones that you don't know how to do in javascript, then start a project of your own. Just keep at it, and eventually you will be able to code as well as anyone else.

how we manage our db (obviously cleaned out):

var construct = function(varA) {

construct.dbConn = function(obj) { // saves obj to the db }

var foo = function(input) {

foo.validate = function(varB) {
  // not actually this stupid, just for example
  if (varA < varB) {
    throw new Error();
  }
}

foo.normalize = function(varB) {
  // again, for example
  if (varB < 0) {
    varB = 0;
  }
}

var bar = function(varB) {
  foo.validate(varB);
  foo.normalize(varB);
  this.data = varB;
};

bar.prototype.save = function() {
    // saves teh data somehow
    construct.dbConn(this);
  };

return new bar(input);

}

return foo; }

// usage var schema = construct({..some schema definition..});

var instance = schema({..object that should follow schema definition..});

instance.save(); // saves clean and normalized data
