Title: CodeWithHarry Sigma JavaScript or SuperSimpleDev JavaScript – Which should I choose?

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya]

I’ve completed HTML and CSS using CodeWithHarry’s Sigma Web Development Course and then SuperSimpleDev’s 6.5-hour HTML and CSS course.
Now I’m planning to start JavaScript, and I’m confused between:
CodeWithHarry’s Sigma JavaScript section.
SuperSimpleDev’s 22-hour JavaScript playlist.
For someone learning web development from scratch and planning to become a full-stack developer, which would you recommend?
I’d appreciate advice from people who have learned from either or both courses. Thanks!

Just start doing your project and google/ask when you get stuck. Ignore these money hungry charlatans. Those who can't do teach.

Yess will start projects but the course i mentioned they are free and tbh i dont know JS even 1% so from starting i am looking to do a free course just like super simple dev or sigma or one who suggested me shreyians coding academy
Thanks Bro!

this is real. i'm really pulling my hare out at the snail's pace i am going. teaching myself vanilla with no bundles. coming from python the frustration is real, scope and events matter a lot. being lazy and wanting to build a toy, i h*te it but i gotra do it.

i found out about minified bundling today! i wondered who the frell wrote in such dense language (app.js) with no spaces in between. Then the AI search says there are flavors/frameworks! this wasn't apparent, in pyrhon we have versions and dependencies (i see this hell has spawned in js too (yes i found out about frameworks from dev mozilla org ).

I was super un-psyched not being able to find standard all in one place documentation for javascript (yes moz dev org has something similar) but the search result on google just shows MDN Web Docs.

My point is Javascript doesn't seem to have its own webpage (maybe i am unaware).

The library I am looking to use has a whole bunch of functions (2016). I gotta figure out the scope and event listening and the button logic.

I am searching the web for reasons to dislike this language all the while not getting any work done ^{^}

Back to Atlas this load :3

[u/Vizeroth1 → u/Neither-Carpet-5034]

The standard for JavaScript is ECMAScript. Searching for that should get you to the standard docs, though I’m not sure how useful that will be vs MDN.

Unfortunately, you still occasionally have to deal with differences between implementations, but it’s not as bad as it used to be.

Sigma is too bloated for JS. Take SuperSimpleDev. His 22 hour course builds real projects immediately which teaches you how to structure code rather than just syntax

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya → u/Flimsy-Guarantee-287]

I was thinking the same when i learned HTML/CSS from him i kinda feel like why is he taking too much time like yeah he focuses on very beginners like who can understand things late or smth he’s also good but super simple dev has regularly exercises after completing a Topic
May it be Easy for me.
Btw are you a Full Stack Developer?

[u/Discordbothost]

either is fine honestly, the thing that matters is how fast you start building your own stuff. supersimpledev is the better fit since he builds things as he goes, sigma tends to be a lot of watching. whichever you pick, build something tiny of your own (a quiz, a todo list) before you start anything full stack, thats where it actually sticks

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya → u/Discordbothost]

Exactly super simple dev builds thing as he go i thought same and will start his Playlist soon
Thanks Bro!

Doesn't matter, you'll have to read MDN and Google a lot anyway. 

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya → u/TheRNGuy]

Is it Necessary? Like tbh i am the person who can study from the video more than reading a Book😭

[u/Competitive_Aside461 → u/Suhaannpahonchiya]

Start reading books and I'm hopeful you'll change this belief of yours. No video course out there can teach you as much as books. It's really simple.

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya → u/Competitive_Aside461]

Yes and i started to read books few days ago. I used to do when i was in 10th, and in my +2 and during my PTE Exam preparation but formone year I can’t my desire to read Books and study died when i got Refused my visa by Aus nvm and yeah i am learning now and may it be Easy for me!
Thanks bro.

[u/Competitive_Aside461 → u/Suhaannpahonchiya]

Which technical books are you studying from at the moment?

[u/Suhaannpahonchiya → u/Competitive_Aside461]

Not reading technical books but reading books so i can be good at reading and in English too currently i am reading Islamic View of Personality Development by Dr Kazim as of now it’s good book i found this book on islamic centre and i have ordered The Sealed Nectar it’s about biography of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and yeah and i had read many books including shayri Books during my 11 th n 12 th🙃

[u/TheRNGuy → u/Suhaannpahonchiya]

You don't need books either. 

Yes, you need to read docs if you're serious about programming and it's not just a casual interest.

You can learn some things from videos, it's just inefficient way of learning, I'd even call it overrated.

[u/Beneficial-Rub-3546]

yeah the "build something tiny before full stack" take is the one. for me the small thing was a quiz app, not even a todo list, cause it forces you to deal with arrays of objects and looping through them before you touch any backend stuff. that's what made state actually click for me ngl
