Please pardon my diction. �
I started coding not too long ago, like 4 months ago. I'm relatively done with HTML and CSS. But JavaScript which most probably is the next stage isn't that easy. Looks so much different and foreign.

Please what job or project can one do with JavaScript, so that I would weigh my chances and see if it's worth the Brain cracking or suffering rather.

Get a good paid course on Udemy.
Nothing good comes easy, that moment you feel like giving up? that's when to push forward.

Before you venture into any learning process, aks your self this, what is it I want to achieve?

Do i want to be a web developer?
Do i want to be an App developer? and so on..

Specify your interest, don't just go about learning languages anyhow.

If you have chosen your area of interest, then you will know what to learn, because everything got prerequisite

After that, get a paid course, and a book to support

Get a full course on what you want to learn, and follow sequence learning.

Be consistent, never let a day go by without study and practice.

Good luck.

JavaScript is the most popular language out there. You can do anything with it from web development to mobile app development.

Some simple projects you can try building are calculators, simple video games, you can literally build anything you think.

But at this stage, try and understand how things like slideshow works, how to hide and display web content, and the rest.

You need to understand what it is before you decide you don’t like it. So far so good what did the material or resource state as your objective?

Are you satisfied with such objective?

Java is different from JavaScript. Just saying. You're right, the courses on w3school are too notch

The complexity of JavaScript depends on your mode of learning. I was able to learn all the basics of JavaScript within a week cos of the mode of tutorial I used and that was w3school. Their programming lessons are simply the best to me! Try them out.

If you intend to go far in web development you will need Javascript. Javascript is an important member of the trifecta of web development.
- HTML is for structure
- CSS is for styling
- Javascript is for behavior
