There is more to vanilla JavaScript than meets the eye.

At least that’s what I discovered after completing Wes Bos’ JavaScript30 Challenge in 30 days.

If you have not heard of JavaScript30 Challenge, it is a FREE video tutorial consisting of 30 coding exercises/challenges, each of which focuses on a specific JavaScript feature.

So, what can you achieve by completing these challenges? Here are 7 key takeaways from my own rewarding experience:

1. Save Time and Money

Did I mention this tutorial is 100% free? Also, most videos are less than 20 minutes long — you can even build a cool-looking feature within 5 minutes of code-along!

2. Laugh Along with Wes Bos

Laughter is contagious. Couple that with Wes Bos’ enthusiastic tone throughout the tutorials, you are bound to have an enjoyable coding journey.

As a side note, it was through this tutorial that I found out about the “BADASS” CSS colors.

3. Build on Top of Beautiful Design

Speaking of CSS, every course comes with unique pre-built CSS styling, which makes each feature already visually appealing before you start coding.

This is an irresistible bonus for visual learners out there.
