A Cool Way To Learn JavaScript

Hello World !
I'm S Soumyakanta.
It's quite difficult to learn coding for a newbie, by watching video tutorials from Youtube. As a beginner I wasted several weeks by watching Javascript video tutorials. Because you can't learn coding by only watching videos. When it comes to practice my device regularly hangs due to low memory. I can't use both Chrome and V S Code for a long time.

It's important to learn things in a structured way. After all I found Free Code Camp on web and Youtube. As a beginner I was making the same mistake again and again. But from the Free Code Camp's Youtube channel I found Per Harald Borgen's free beginner level full Javascript course. It was a interactive course on Scrimba.com.

It was important for me to practice online to boost my journey. I know you may ask their are many online code learning platform's then why Scrimba !!! then here are some answers why as newbie should learn JS from Scimba's Learn JavaScript for free !

1. If you haven't a high end device:- For this course you only need a PC(1 GB Ram),Internet and a browser(Chrome suggested). Your journey will not stop due to lack of resources. You don't need to run several application to start.

2.If you're a beginner:-I struggled hard to learn code by self ,in the way to my web development journey. I love to learn things by doing practical application in real world. This course will teach you Javascript by creating three projects like Passenger counter app, Blackjack game and a chrome extension.

3.Fun and Zero distraction:- While learning from Youtube as a newbie I was so distracted by other recommended videos. In this course it was simple for me to stay focused. This course is amazingly delivered by Mr. Per . You will learn several things by doing challenges in this course.

My Suggestion to beginners:-After searching several platform's I would suggest to learn Javascript from Scrimba. Don't waste so much time on watching random videos one after one to learn. It's a 7 hour long video and I assure you that you're going to enjoy it.

For Mr. Per:- Hello sir ! thanks for your teaching. Your course impacted my life. It's my humble gratitude to you. Thanks a lot.

I hope this review will help you to start journey in a productive way.
