Forgot JavaScript after break? Follow This Structured Approach

Forgetting some details after a break from coding is completely normal. Here's a structured approach to refresh your memory and get back into JavaScript:

1. Review Basic Concepts

Start by revisiting fundamental concepts like variables, data types, operators, control structures (if statements, loops), functions, arrays, and objects.

2. Practice the concepts

Along side revisiting the baisc concpets, try coding exercises and challenges.

These are small, well-defined problems that help you test your knowledge quickly.

Doing few problems each day will help you to reinforce all the concepts you've learned so far. You can find problems here.

3. Work on Mini-Projects

Once you start feeling a bit confident with the concepts, start small projects to apply what you've learned. These projects can be simple tasks like building a to-do list, creating a calculator, or making a small game.

4. Build Something Meaningful

As you gain confidence, work on larger projects that interest you. Building something meaningful will keep you motivated and help you apply your JavaScript skills in a practical context.

Also, make sure you select a project that solves a problem you are passionate about. Choosing something common, like a weather app, may become demotivating when you get stuck. Projects you are passionate about will help you stay motivated even in difficult situations.

Remember, learning is a continuous process, and it's okay to take breaks and forget things along the way. The key is to be patient with yourself and stay persistent in your efforts to improve your JavaScript skills.
