Update: This blog post has become a chapter in my book “Speaking JavaScript”. You can read it here: “Basic JavaScript”. Kind words by Cody Lindley (author of “jQuery Enlightenment”, “JavaScript Enlightenment” and “DOM Enlightenment”): “Basic JavaScript” … [is the] most complete and concise write up I am aware of. This blog post enables you to get started with JavaScript as quickly as possible – if you already know how to program. It describes the smallest subset of the language that allows you to be productive. I call that subset “Basic JavaScript” and recommend to program in it for a while, before moving on to more details and advanced topics. Learning everything at once is too confusing. The post concludes with tips for what to learn next.
