Learning Resources

Let’s make 2023 the year that you master JavaScript! You can do this. I can help.

  • Daily Developer Tips. I send out a short email each weekday with code snippets, techniques, and ideas on how to build a simpler, more resilient web.
  • Projects. Each self-paced project includes a few short lessons and a template to get you started. Complete it on your own or code along with me.
  • Courses & Books. Short, focused video courses and ebooks made for beginners. Learn the ins-and-outs of a topic in about an hour.
  • Online Workshops. Work on fun projects, follow a structured learning path, and get the support you need to work through challenges.
  • Consulting. I help teams build resilient, scalable websites and avoid costly mistakes.

Looking for more? I also maintain the JavaScript toolkit, wrote a career guide for web developers, and host a podcast.
