kevin doesn't really do much javascript
but you can check https://javascript.info/
Beat me to it lol and they were messaging me!
should I use it like a reference (like MDN etc.) or much like a "tutorial" that has exercices etc.?
a tutorial
MDN is the reference, JS.info is the tutorial
Also, avoid W3Schools. It's, like, really bad
mdn also is a reference for css and html, not just javascript
Also, avoid LLMs of all types. They'll lie to you and you won't know any better
they lie in between truths, which is worse
I know that, there is W3Fools for a reason lol
Also, check out #resources and search for "JavaScript". You'll find a lot of resources 😉
oh ok ok
oki TYSM
I've never heard of W3Fools. But I will do some research now. TIL!
it just a website that mocks w3school lol
Nice
i never heard about it too
Just JavaScript
Just JavaScript
Just JavaScript will help you develop a rock-solid understanding of how JavaScript works through intuitive visual explanations and learning challenges.
you have to pay for that?
:/
what's wrong with paying for good content?
there's free content that's equally good
and?
and that's it
Javascript info is good tho the examples have some outdated code like using var
that's a keyword replacement
but yeah, if it has
var it should be updated
but that isn't the end of the world@ἔρως you seem to be full of definitions
Yeah I was just thinking it might cause confusion
And lead to bad practice
if i was, i would be a dictionary
some people might think that equally good or *the end of the world * depends
i agree: good habits must be set from the beginning
Overall it's pretty good just some sections haven't been updated from when I last used
going back to Just Javascript, it's great content because Dan Abramov is really skilled at explaining things and Maggie Appleton's drawings help on solidifying concepts. For some people those visuals actually help a lot because not everybody is that smart.
while diagrams and everything is useful, trying and actually doing something yourself is the only way to actually learn - no matter how "smart" someone is
lol
sure
you definitely sound like a dictionary 😉
i won't deny: some things are a lot easier to reason with by means of a diagram
I just checked out multiple sections. It seems they did edit out many sections to use let now I might have missed some but i think they fixed the most examples
that's really good
I recomment w3
i recommend you to stay away from w3schools
far, far away
except for seo
learn from the
whatever the hell they are doing, they do it right
