Hello essheck,

I would recommend focusing on the fundamentals of the JavaScript language including the new ES6 syntax. It is widely prevalent and is requirement for newer technologies like Vue, React, TypeScript, etc...

In terms of learning resources, here is a small list to help you get started:

freeCodeCamp - in-depth free curriculum for JavaScript with the recent addition of a Python track.

freecodecamp.org/

I would also highly recommend the freeCodeCamp YouTube channel at:

youtube.com/channel/UC8butISFwT-Wl...

Their channel has a large selection of free videos on a wide variety of topics. Their channel is my go-to resource.

Coding Train - taught by Daniel Shiffman, he regularly creates free JavaScript tutorial videos at:

youtube.com/user/shiffman

Personally, I prefer videos over books for learning programming as I find it much more engaging.

I hope that these can get you started. Best of luck on your journey into Web Development!
