Your Friendly Guidebook to JavaScript (in case you missed it)

Hey there, future JavaScript ninja!

So, JavaScript's got you spooked, huh? Feels like walking into a spider-web, and now you're doing that awkward dance?

I wrote a post for you last week:

In case you didn't have the chance to read it, worry not! I've got some tricks up my sleeve that’ll turn that web into a hammock.

Codecademy: Not My Cup of Tea 🍵

I'll shoot straight—I’m not on the Codecademy bandwagon. It’s like needing a sprint but getting a leisurely stroll instead. If it’s your jam, though, chime in below with your cheers (or jeers)!

Kitchen Prep for Code Chefs 🍳

Before we bake our code cake, let's get our "mise en place." Download Visual Studio Code to whip up your JavaScript delights, and grab Nodejs because, well, it's Nodejs.

Pick a framework; I ❤️ React. Kick things off with create-react-app, fire up npm run dev, and voilà! You’ve got a web app baby saying "Hello World" on https://localhost:3000.

Stephen Grider: The Gandalf of Web Dev 🧙‍♂️

Stephen Grider on Udemy is my Gandalf in the Mines of Moria. "You shall not pass... without learning something awesome!" But hey, everyone’s different. If his style fits like your favorite hoodie, check out Node with React: Fullstack Web Development.

Stumble, Tumble, Learn & Grow 🌱

Embrace the bugs; they're like breadcrumbs leading you to the Gingerbread house of wisdom. Deploy your creations into the wild on Heroku or Vercel. AWS is the big leagues, but you've got this!

And hey, why not contribute to an open-source project? It's like joining a rock band but for coding. Check out our WebCrumbs, the jam session for web developers.

Keep on coding, and remember, every coder starts with a "Hello, World!" and ends with a "Wow, I did that?!"

Help us build the React playground of your dreams! 🚀
