50 micro coding challenges for JavaScript learners
This is a list of 50 micro coding challenges intended for beginners that just learned the basis of JavaScript language. Solve them to improve or test your coding skills and language understanding.
Although the challenges are designed for codeguppy.com learners, the challenges are platform agnostic so any JavaScript beginner can have fun with them.
What coding environment to use?
We recommend using an online JavaScript coding environment that allows you to share your code with others if you decide so. codeguppy.com is one option, but any other online JavaScript playground will work just fine.
