After JQuery....

But at the end, learning JS should be the core right? Because at the end all the JS libraries or whatever it is, is made from JS.

They are old xD But i like thenewboston to xD

I am going to be very honest. I literally can't understand what this chaulker dude says or do, dosen't make any sense to me. Even old videos make much more sense to me than chaulker's course.

I think you learn the basics of JS, not 2h. You learn on how to use the documentation and you try to build some things you see like carousel and stuff, that way you can practice. It shoudl take few montsh i guess.

And at the end, you should not be affraid to build things with JS, otherwise id say you need more practice.

Like im okay to build sites with HTML/CSS 100% im not afraid , but when it comes to WP, sometimes im wondering my self , but at the end, i usually make it, whether that was after 30days. And with jQuery i know everything i do is a challenge for me, but im getting a little bit my head around it.

I want to apply to a job soon, but i know that im affraid to build things with jQuery or JS :D and so i wont. Even though there were some things that i woudl apply if i knew jQuery well enough and JS as well to a degree.

Yes, learn from my mistake. I learned jquery before I learned js. jquery became a crutch, not a tool. I became limited to what I could within jquery.

You're not suppose to learn vanilla js in a 2 hr course. You probably won't learn all of vanilla js in 2 years. Js is one of the hardest langagues to grasp, in my opinion.

But when I forced myself to break my dependency on jquery, it was rough to start. But like learning anything new, persistence was key. Now more of the jquery makes sense, because I can see the connection from vanilla js.

I don't have any great resources. Just a lot of blogs, and a lot of practice. Node.js, and the Meteorjs framework has been helpful really push my comfort level, and knowledge.

The more i read about how programming is, the more it reminds me of learning Martial Arts or Dance. You won't do any fancy kicks unless you have lots and lots and lots of practice and before you do the flashy kick you need to know the basics.

hmmm I'm a little discouraged now lol.

I finally started making cool things with jQuery, and I should abandon it now.

Vanilla it is then!

No no no, don't be discouraged!!

jQuery is a great tool. I use it on every or almost every project.

What I'm trying to say is to not neglect the vanilla javascript language too! You'll learn JS over time. Languages like javascript can take years to master, but you may not need to master it, depending on your career path.

But I don't know what my career path is lol.

I am a mechanical engineer, working in marketing department and here learning to code.

But one thing I'm sure about I don't like to work on damn designs, I like it when I face some kind of a logical problem and I pull my hair out and throw my laptop away and ultimately solve it, it's an awesome feeling.I want to choose a career with coding problems. I just don't know what it is? Does it depend on the language you choose;I'm not sure.

Great! You should definitely learn all you can about JS. And jquery.

For the most part, understanding the core principals of one language, makes learning number two that much easier, makes learning number 3 even easier.

So you can just start with what you're interested in, and as you move through to your desired career, you may need to pick up a language along the way to work over there, but if you already know the principals of other languages, it's not as big of a deal.

Just start with what you love, and the path you should talk will start to open up. It's important in these early stages to make progress, and find it rewarding as you build more and more things. If you just go straight up and stare at the wall that is the web development world, and try to pick up all of these frameworks, languages, tools, and acronyms (OOP anyone?), you scare yourself straight into a minimum wage job.

Nobody knows everything, this is too big, and it moves way too fast to master everything. You're in for a lifetime of learning.

Im not sure but, umm, making games could be challenging? or making some system of some kind ? :D Im sure there are lots of logical challenges.

I mean look at my design, I joined treehouse a month ago and still I can't create a good design and I think don't want to(seems booring).

I think node.js looks interesting.I think my next target would be node.js and then I will work on vanilla. I mean that's the plan and usually think don't go according to the plan hehehe

aaahaa games! Now that's the fun part. Well these days I'm curious about this markdown sheet. How this thing works.

I mean you just add 3 backticks and the language name, wallah! you have everything you need, interesting.

Cut yourself some slack, you joined a month ago. You're off to a great start, tbh! You're much further ahead than I expected based off those 3 links

I'm not a designer, i don't know photoshop nor i use it. But this is what i have managed to do, on my own , looking at ideas and then mergin them. Maybe not 100% is exactly mine, but most of it.

Took me 5times making my personal site before i understood on what to look at to making websites.

Heres my site. It's straight forward.

thanks kevin, but I want to improve now. I mean I remember when I first started out, I posted a question on stackoverflow, and a few people were so fucking rude. I decided that day( I'm following them on linkedin) I will kick their ass no matter what!

konrad good job man, not at all cheesy! I don't know why but I like footer the most!.

I don't know about other people but you have mentioned your skill level, probably people do that.

But when I see "middle" as the skill level, it just conveys that you are not good at those particular skills, I think you don't want to highlight your weakness,just a suggestion(although it won't matter much)

Hey, would you like to join a slack group where we help each other and collaborate on projects?
