Today was another beautiful day in my neighborhood. The sun was shining, the weather was warm, and I had time for a short walk. Then I went back to my main task for the weekend—trying to make peace with JavaScript. I’ve been reading books (JavaScript for Kids, JavaScript & JQuery, and JavaScript Grammar). In addition to working, I’ve been working through tutorials on FreeCodeCamp, Wes Bos’s website, and Udemy. At this point, I only have one question…
What will it take to help me understand and retain JAVASCRIPT? Why aren’t the functions, objects, and arrays sticking to my brain?
I feel as if the information is in my brain. However, it’s lying there like an organized mess. Just when I think I understand how to solve a problem, my mind becomes blank. I realize I need to be patient, but… I’M LOSING MY JAVASCRIPT PATIENCE!
I would love to hear how other coders made it through learning JavaScript.
- How did you make sure the concepts stuck in your brain?
- What worked better for you— tutorials, reading books, or both?
- Are there specific concepts I should focus on first instead of reviewing multiple concepts?
I would appreciate any guidance, help, and useful tips that anyone can offer. I will continue working on my tutorials and reading all of my resources. I just hope in time I will be more comfortable with JavaScript as I am with HTML and CSS.
