I’m doing freecodecamp’s web development curriculum, going through the HeadFirst HTML & CSS book, and also applying everything I learn to a project of my own (in my case, a personal website)

This is the book I read to learn JavaScript. It explains it like your a child, which is what I needed 🤣

Then I started building JavaScript games with Phaser 3, and that taught me a lot about coding. Now I know several languages and coding is my favorite game to play. I think you’ll love it.

Awesome. I’ve got this book (and head first HTML 5) in my collection already and will be working through it when I get started on JS.

Have you already decided what ja library/framework you’re going for? React/vue/angular/svelte?

Not yet. Gonna just focus on the basics and getting a good grip on vanilla JS first before looking at frameworks/libraries.

The thing that helped me the most was installing Textastic on my iPhone. Android has several good JavaScript text editors too. Everyone is different, but I need to be able to code anywhere at anytime. I never use a PC.

What are you building?
