Javascript is really hard

Well its not that its really hard but the “advanced” concepts that combine multiple lessons such as creating a function to push an array and shift an item to the front of it is really confusing. I’ve been on this single lesson for like the past hour or two and its still not clicking with me. The biggest mental block for me is that I don’t understand how I’m going to apply any of this knowledge to designing a webpage or otherwise, because at this stage it seems like a convoluted way of coding mat…

JavaScript is hard

I felt really confident about HTML and CSS. I got them for the most part and was having fun learning. Enter JavaScript and man this stuff is crazy! There are concepts I understand, but when there is really nothing to see a big picture it just makes me confused. Sure, I understand parts of it, but what are we goin…
