Back to the Basics of JavaScript
Although, I’ve been exposed to some advanced JavaScript, I’ve decided to go back to the basics to reinforce the most elementary concepts of the programming language. I’m using codecademy’s Introduction To JavaScript course, which I’m finding invaluable.
However, codecademy offers many other learning modules, such as Learn HTML, Learn CSS, Learn Responsive Design, Learn ReactJS and more. They can all be accessed below:
Another resource for diving deeper into the concepts of web development are the “Learn Enough to be Dangerous” series of courses. The course lineup includes: Learn Enough Command Line, Learn Enough Text Editor, Learn Enough Git, Learn Enough HTML, Learn Enough CSS & Layout, The Rails Tutorial (advanced development), and Action Cable (advanced development). The “Learn Enough” series focuses on technical sophistication, which is an essential skill of this era. It’s definitely worth paying the membership fee. They can all be accessed here:
Going through the “Learn Enough” resources as well as utilizing codecademy’s powerful tools teach one how to code from a basic to an advanced level. They are excellent resources to prepare for an immersive software development bootcamp or are great standalone resources that could easily lead one to qualify for a junior software development position, ideally leading to more on-the-job training.
