I came here to say this, as well. Reading and taking the time to really grok You Don't Know JS was a major turning point for me.

I actually tried YDKJS but I found a lot of the language and explanations confusing. Might give it another shot sometime tbough..

It's definitely for when you're ready to understand how things behave under the hood. I guess a lot of that isn't really super necessary early on, though!

I was going to say, don't be put off if something doesn't click right away. There's an absolute mountain of stuff that made no sense to me at the beginning of my journey that became super relevant later on. Keep at it!
