Generally, it is advisable to learn HTML first, and after that, one should move to learning JavaScript because HTML is foundational in its approach to creating websites, while JavaScript is essentially used to enhance the developed websites.

A big problem we noticed with the software engineering students at Amquest Education was this: Many jumped into React or Node without really knowing JavaScript. They wanted fast results, but without knowing the basics—variables, functions, loops, objects, and the DOM—things fell apart as soon as the code got a little tricky.
If you don't get how JavaScript handles scope, hoisting, or asynchronous stuff, you'll always be confused, even with simple projects. It's tempting to just follow cool tutorials, but you'll grow more if you slow down and get a solid foundation.
Start small. Build to-do lists, calculators, or simple games using ju
