Yesterday, I got an email from a newsletter subscriber asking: What’s the best way to practice JavaScript? There’s no one right way to learn JavaScript. But after teaching it for a handful of years now, I have found some trends and common approaches that make things easier for a lot of students. Let’s dig in!

How I became the vanilla JS guy
How I became the vanilla JS guy
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of chatting with Chris Bongers about how I became the vanilla JS guy. We talked about how I got into web development after years as an HR professional, how I made the career switch, the viability of CSS as a career path, and why I got into JavaScript. We also talked a fair bit about the value of sharing everything you learn, and the power of daily writing.

A quick summary The sites and apps I build are absurdly fast. They load nearly instantly. Even on spotty 3G connections on the other side of the world, where many of my students live, things still load really quickly (like, 3 seconds or less fast).
