Choosing the right web host is crucial for your project's success. Web hosting should be seen as the foundation in which your website or web app is built upon.

Learning JavaScript from scratch can be as much about syntax as it is programming concepts, especially when it's your first language. Concepts like knowing how and why you need a place to store bits of data (variables), re-using code snippets instead of writing them repeatedly (functions), making decisions (conditional statements), and working with…

In this episode, Matt and Mike h…
