I am mostly working in another language (OpenEdge 4GL) but what I try to do is to build small examples that do what I want to be done. I am building a proof of concept.

And to keep learning I often build things that should not be built with a 4GL, like games. It is hard to build a game in a language that is not suitable for that. I already built minesweeper, breakout and sokoban. It is fun to do.

Great article! Thank you very much!
Well Then, I think I'm completely at the wrong side of learning javascript and I really felt that before but till now I can't find the right way to learn javascript, I would be so glad if you suggest me a free course(Cause I'm living in Syria and there is no payment method I can charge with for paid courses) or a place I can build my javascript knowledge in a good way.
Hi Amr, please see my comment to Aye Aye Mon below as I have just posted the answer :)
Thank you friend, I will take a look
Can you recommend some resources to learn JavaScript?
Hi Aye!
Sure! The best hands-on coding training from my experience is the free online course (actively developed by the community) at freecodecamp.org
A great ebook that helped me a lot was Eloquent JavaScript by Marjin Haverbeke
Hi jsmanifest!
Thanks a lot for your reply. I'm reading that book.
Thanks brother for advice!
This is a great article. I always compare myself to senior devs. Thanks for letting me know that I have to consider the hard work which brought them to seniority. I need to work harder. Thank you!
Yes, I skipped some fundamentals of JavaScript and went into the React frameworks. After spending an year in framework, it doesn't gave me confidence in JavaScript.
Wow this is a great read! I feel like I go through all these things myself! It make me believe that I'm not the only one that goes through these stages alone, which is a little comforting.
ada orang indo disini haha :D
Great advice. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this.
