I thought I knew JavaScript well until I took this course. The module on closures and the event loop finally filled in all the gaps I had from years of copying Stack Overflow answers.
The design patterns section is absolutely brilliant. Went from junior to confidently writing maintainable, scalable JS code. This is the course I wish existed when I started programming.
Dense but incredibly rewarding. The performance optimization chapter alone changed how I write loops and handle asynchronous code. Highly recommend for anyone past the beginner stage.
