In an effort to help out aspiring developers, I’m interested in hearing about what you think the most confusing parts of Javascript are.
I’ll try my best to explain a concept and, hopefully, others will chime in 😊.
This is a safe space, which means all questions are good questions!

Hello!!!! I have been having trouble with arrays. :(
What are you struggling with specifically?
Just the very basic style of it. :3
Two sources I can recommend are Javascript30 and Beginner Javascript. They are both by Wes Bos, who is an amazing teacher. JS30 is free and has a bunch of videos about arrays.
TYSM! :3
Hi Mike,
While I was learning javascript, 'Promises' was the most confusing topic for me. Nesting promises and chaining promises were really tough for me.
Ohh I remember the feeling! Nowadays I am very comfortable with promises and the newer async/await syntax.
I struggled with nesting / chaining as well because it felt like I was just shifting the callback hell to chaining hell. How do you feel about promises now :)?
I have the same experience. The new async/await syntax is much easier to use and understand.
I still struggle when I try to write chained promises but when I try the same with async/await, its easier for me.
I am in the same boat!
