JavaScript & React

A sequenced JavaScript-to-React pathway that turns you job-ready for frontend and full-stack roles. JavaScript is the universal language of the web; React is the framework most studios build on.

Foundation

Modern JavaScript (ES6+): functions, closures, async, modules.

Framework

React with hooks, state management, and component design patterns.

Ship It

Vite tooling, APIs, testing, and deploying to a live URL.

Learn plain JavaScript thoroughly before touching React – it makes every later step faster.
Build a mini-project after each topic; retention comes from doing, not watching.
Finish with 3 deployed portfolio apps and a clean, readable GitHub.
