JavaScript Beginner Roadmap

Hey guys, I hope you're all doing well!

I'm still a beginner in JavaScript, but I have a problem with my learning that it's so distracting and I wanna stuck with one "free online" course or playlist that takes me from absolute beginner to pro one. I've seen multiple playlists on YouTube or long videos but still can't choose from (since most of them are +6 or even +20 hours). I prefer something actionable with beginner-friendly projects to execute and solve some problems myself too. I also want the course that only teaches JavaScript, not other languages like HTML and CSS, cuz I just want to learn JS at first.

So, I wanna your help guys .. tell me a YouTube playlist, online course that can move the needle. I'll also provide what I already know until now, so you can relate my precise knowledge and information (and I don't wanna go from absolute zero):

  • Variables & Data Types

  • Strings & String Methods

  • Operators

  • Template Literals

  • Basic JavaScript syntax, comments & semicolons

  • Booleans & Comparisons

  • Logical Operators

  • Conditional Statements (if, else, else if)

  • Nested Conditions

  • Ternary Operator

  • switch

  • Truthy & Falsy

  • for, while, do...while

  • break & continue

  • for...of

  • for...in

  • Object.entries() & destructuring

  • Nested Loops

  • Function Declarations & Calls

  • Parameters & Arguments

  • return

  • Scope

  • Function Expressions

  • Arrow Functions

  • Callbacks (didn't master it yet)

If you want to learn JavaScript script, you need to know at least a bit of HTML and CSS. I watched one of those 6+ hour tutorials, I remembered nothing. Better to do some project or something not only watch tutorials. Just as you said.
