Hello katka,

thanks for your question.
My favorite way of learning is watching videos, because I mainly re-watch passages when I'm having trouble understanding them.

I also like to read documents or guides, but only if they are well written. As an example of what I think is a well-written document, MDN docs
This documentation contains code examples.

I don't like speaking to someone live because sometimes it takes time to get the person to understand what problem I have. It's only a good way in my opinion if the person has a lot of patience.

Another thing that comes to mind for learning is doing small projects of your own.

Probably reading code examples.
Then reading the docs (if they’re any good) and watching videos.
Books are good too. As long as they’re up to date.
