Imagine JavaScript - visualize the fundamentals
Grow your mental model with The Great Sync
This course will give you a firm foundation to continue learning intermediate/advanced web development. Together we journey through an imagined JavaScript universe, with one ultimate objective: visualize, understand and memorize all of JavaScript's fundamental concepts.
Is the course currently open?
Unfortunately, no. To ensure the best experience for everyone, I only take students in a few times a year. If you're a subscriber of The Great Sync you will be notified by email when it opens next.
Is it self-paced?
Yes. It is a self-paced online course you can take in your own time.
Is it aimed at beginners or intermediates??
It will help both beginners and intermediates, whether you have been learning JavaScript for just a few weeks or it's been months / years and you are trying to relearn and consolidate your fundamentals.
Does it require a lot of actual coding?
Yes. The Great Sync is not a shortcut. It's an effective learning method, but nothing beats the hours you put in behind the code editor. I provide code exercises throughout, and every section has a "Mental Model Applied" section.
How long will it take me to complete the course?
Building a mental model cannot be achieved with a checklist. It is about time spent immersing yourself in each concept. Instead of aiming for X number of pages/sections per day, take this approach
- Aim for consistency. Minimum 1 hour a day, but 2-3 would be ideal.
- Do ALL the exercises and section projects, and post them here
- After finishing a page or section, REFLECT. Write down the main takeaways, and any uncertainties. Read a blog or watch a youtube tutorial on the same topic if you're not 100% comfortable. Run code in your inspector. Play
Focus on immersion, practice and consistency
