Question:
Do you know of Resources to learn the basics of JavaScript & JQuery (and Velo)?

Product:
Wix Studio + Velo + JavaScript + JQuery

What are you trying to achieve:
I am a complete newbie to Javascript and, thus, Velo. I am looking for resources to learn the concepts and basics. I find it easy to learn by doing rather than reading the documentation. In fact, I find it very hard to learn by reading documentation.

What have you already tried:
I have found and used a few YouTube videos by @WixFix and @wixfreaks quite useful, as well as a couple of follow-along project template sites created by Wix.

Additional information:
If there are more resources available that someone has used, I would love to try them. I would also like to learn the basics of JavaScript and JQuery. So please share resources for them if you know about any!

If you want to learn BASIC-JS + VELO → i would recommend to use this FORUM daily.

  1. Read every new post.
  2. Pick up simple posts and try to understand and to regenerate them on your own page.
  3. best learning is → LEARNING BY DOING !!!

If you are a total BEGINNER → use → CHAT-GPT, which will help you to understand things much faster.

Of course you first will need some BASICS!!!
But what is included inside → CODE-BASICS ?

CODE-BASICS:

  1. You will have to understand the CODE-SYNTAX of your chosen scripting-language.
    To understand the right SYNTAX is the most importat thing of every scripting language. If you do not know the SYNTAX → You will have a lot of problems.

  2. You will have to understand the following…
    a) What is a → VARIABLE and how to define it?
    b) What is an ARRAY and how does it work?
    c) What is an Object and why everyone is talking about → OBJECT-ORINTED-CODING ???

  3. What are → OPERATORS ? —> Can i eat them ?

  4. What is SYNCHRONOUS and ASYNCHRONOUS runtime?

  5. What are APIs and how to use them ?

  6. What are FUNCTIONS and METHODS?

  7. What is the → CONSOLE and how to use it?

  8. …and so on and so on …

But those are the most important things if you want to start to learn CODING.

Youtube-Videos are of course also very helpful, if you have found some good ones.
