Hey everyone! I'm currently on day 60 of the 100 Days of Python course by Angela Yu. As I understand, after day 60, the focus shifts to more project-based work. I'm considering diving into JavaScript alongside these Python projects. Is it a good idea to start learning JavaScript at this point? I have a basic understanding of Object-Oriented Programming, although I'm not a master yet. My ultimate goal is to become an app developer and start my own project to build an app.

Focus on small projects and gradually tackle more complex ones. It's important to work on projects that are in demand in the marketplace!
When you start JavaScript, what resources are you planning to use? Are you considering another Udemy course? I'm also going through Angela's course alongside some books.
It's really your call! Just be cautious about juggling too much at once. If you're confident you can manage it without confusing the two languages, then go for it!
Starting JavaScript now seems like a reasonable choice. Working on Python projects will help with problem-solving skills, which are transferable. Just make sure you balance both languages and complete your Python projects while learning JS basics.
Honestly, the best way to learn programming is through hands-on projects instead of just following tutorials. Aim for a mix of about 20% watching and 80% building for more effective learning.
The key is to put in the hours, no matter the language! Aim for 8+ hours of coding a day if you can; that's the best way to speed up your learning!

I'm thinking about looking for some good online tutorials or maybe another Udemy course to kickstart my JS learning!
