JavaScript is the backbone of the internet and an advanced language with an incredible number of job opportunities and career paths for aspiring coders. You can go from beginner to developer of advanced applications, games, websites, and more all with one language.
The best place to start and engage with fundamentals of coding in JavaScript is through game development and P5. But interactive applications are just the start—JavaScript is much more than a niche language. It has a huge amount of support and libraries to expand its functionality.
After getting started, you’ll discover how it works with advanced content, algorithms, and more. When you stick with JavaScript, it will help you in diverse areas like creating fun content in RPG Maker, or designing websites and really thinking through UX/UI and human-centric design.
JavaScript is great for a lifetime of learning coding, design, and the technology that so much of our modern world relies on. Start developing a portfolio that will be relevant for years to come!
