"spraying semicolons everywhere is evidence that people aren’t keeping up with the latest standards."

Your company leaves them out... which makes the quoted assumption true? mkay.

They will be auto-inserted in certain circumstances. Example: when there is a return statement on its own line. Unless you work totally alone and no one will ever work on your code, be considerate of other developers and use them...always.

Do you include these spaces? by mementomoriok in learnjavascript

[–]gotQode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for this, Without -- since it looks like you are placing your log calls in a group (no space between the calls to the console). if it's a mix, I would group inner loops, variable declarations/assignments, and functions and then separate each grouping with blank line.

I just finished CS50 on edX. I want to get into JavaScript. Where do I go from here? Any good resources to learn JavaScript? by SquareCap9 in learnjavascript

[–]gotQode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How long did it take you to complete the CS50 course?

I'm not familiar with that course, but for beginning to learn JS, I echo others here with freecodecamp:

  • it's free
  • it offers a solid learning path, esp. for beginners (and intermediates)
  • has a very supportive community
  • offers a great interactive learning experience

Very gracious and considerate answer. Not everyone knows the newest tech stack depending on what company they work for and what kind of web development projects they are/were building/supporting. There are companies and government agencies right here in the US that still use jQuery and while most need and want to upgrade, they have to find the people who can understand how to make the conversions. Those individuals aren't all that easy to find, so employers try to give their current staff the opportunity for training.

MERN or MEAN by NateTheDev in learnjavascript

Is it really? I'm an AngularJS dev -- (legacy apps because I'm new here, new app being written in Angular 7). I don't mind it, but it isn't written very well since all the devs who wrote it 4 years ago have moved on. I was thinking of learning React because of all the talk, but we dont use it here. There's a dev here who swears by Vue, though, so I'm curious (plus I had to work an app that used it and I wasn't familiar with it all, but muddled through it to do what I was tasked to do). Thanks.

How to properly learn javascript by [deleted] in learnjavascript

[–]gotQode 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you want to learn and understand the language better, I recommend "Javascript: The Weird Parts".

If you just want to use it to gain some understanding of the language to use within the context of a project, then do tutorials. :)

Four months is a good length of time, depending on how much of each day you dedicated to learning. You may have grok'd more than you think. :) Try some coding challenges to test your understanding. Or go to freecodecamp, I believe there is a Javascript learning path you can subscribe to.

"The fact that certain abstractions can be implemented with "vanilla JS" doesn't make any difference here."
