Just a bit of advice from a guy who learned several languages on his own watching videos and such. Start with kids books. Whether you're learning German or C++, start with a children's book.

This sort of summary is exactly what I need when I start to learn anything. It allows me to move forward on what to learn, now that a clear foundation of the whole system is presented to me. I call it an active summary, as it not only provides an overview of important commands and concepts, but provides internal consistency and context to the language as a whole. Thanks Aaron, you saved me a ton of time!

#NoRefunds on that college tuition, sweetheart. Next time, don't apply to colleges whose target audience are unemployed Jerry Springer viewers. "You're on the phone all day, anyhow!".
I really like it as someone with some programming experience. This is great entryway to pick it up. But I can see as someone who is new to programming and wants to learn js as a first programming language, it will be hard to swallow. Don’t get discouraged! Come back and watch it again after you learn more and all will make sense
Yeah I kind of don't like when people include the next year in their title while there's literally a whole ass year in 2020 that everything can change till next December
Programmer/scripter only when necessary. Best introduction to a topic for someone who already has superficial knowledge of programming already. Fantastic viceo.
You’re the best dude on RUclips! Few months ago I was watching your channel to get an overview on certain topics and to know where to start but frankly I wasn’t able to keep up with you and I gave up on your channel! But now as I took a JavaScript course whatever the instructor says your voice and your explanation pops up into my head and it’s helping a lot to understand what the instructor is saying.. so I appreciate it so fuckin much!! Thanks in advance 🙏🏻♥️
I’m an intermediate programmer so I can’t sit through hour long tutorials teaching you all the basics like what a variable is etc. I just need to know the differences between this and other languages to learn to use it, and I have to say, you did an amazing job at teaching all the important stuff in just 5 mins!
Finally someone explained the concepts instead of rambling on about goddamn integers for 15 minutes. To anyone who has programmed before it's not very useful to watch a 4 hour video on a programming language. It's more useful to have concepts like DOM and npm explained so we can start working. Thanks!
I think it's worth mentioning why async/await is so awesome: it pauses only function execution until promise is resolved, and the actual Event Loop (our program you might say) continue to do it's thing, and when promise is resolved, it add to the Event Loop queue and when it's ON, execution of a function continues. JS is single thread language, and an actual block of executions would mean our program is at halt (which is bad).
I remember having issues with css, and I searched, I watched a couple of vids, and suddenly before I was about to quit I played your css explanatory video, and the fact that it explained so much which I’m after , like what this does and why this is this way has helped me visualize css completely differently
@@miggyspain3218 I done a degree in applied computing. But honestly I'd say I learned more from RUclips videos. After watching them, see if you can do it without the video. It'll take many attempts, but when you get it right it means you now understand that piece of code, and you'll never forget it. Learn small things each time to build up your overall understanding. Then try to build a website about something your interested in using what you've learned and improve/update it every time you learn something new. This will make you think for yourself rather than fooling yourself that you learnt something just because you watched the video.
@@miggyspain3218 You are very welcome. It's what worked for me, however there are many other ways to learn which you could experiment with also. I wish you all the best on your journey :)
This was amazing, thank you! The way you explained things was so clear, that I understood some concepts more than through watching hours of video on it.

This is a fantastic video. My advice for anyone who's new to JS to get familiar with JS a bit, first, and review this video as it'll help consolidate and re-familiarise the concepts. This technique worked for me, it might work for you and is useful for overlearning and other languages or learning endevours. Good luck out there ;) Thanks Aaron

2:10 if you want to change of letters use let otherwise use const 2:14 all in 4 seconds, i spent half an hour video to get the difference between, var let and const.
HTML in 5 mins -> That's very informative, nice refresher! CSS in 5 mins -> I haven't done CSS for a very long time and this is helpful! JavaScript in 5 mins -> What's going on? Where am I?

Aaron has additional skill of explaining technical concepts. It appears seamless and adept even in his other vids. Must be his overseas English teaching background.
I know Javascript (regardless of what Kyle Simpson has to say). I only checked out this video because I thought the title must be a lie. But goddamnit he did it. In 5 minutes.
Don't be dumb. This video only useful when you already knew all the things from JavaScript. It's not for beginner. In fact, he just tried to flex his programming languages skill. That's all.

Just a bit of advice from a guy who learned several languages
on his own watching videos and such. Start with kids books.
Whether you're learning German or C++, start with a children's book.
The way they're laid out is geared for learning whereas many people who
already know the language have a tendency to forget what it's like to not
know what you don't know.
Thanks any books in particular? I tried scratch and it was even more difficult than regular programming.
@@Hshjshshjsj72727 That's why he suggested children's books. Better learn it early so it's easier later
This sounds interesting. What book do you suggest for someone learning javascript? Or is there a book for programming in general?
What books?
Im german so i need to learn english good and Java + Java-Script
All I know about programming is
"Hello world"
Hello word
What about "Hello friend"?

If you want to be successful have the mindset of the rich, spend less and invest More. Don't give up your dreams.
That's very correct !! And that is why most of them end up losing they m o n e y to s c a m m e r s.
Don't be in a haste to invest. Know what and who you are investing to and be sure that the person will deliver before investing.
Learn and get the knowledge first before investing..
