tldr: ( my own, not the authors in the article itself )
- Read books
- Learn libraries ( author seems to like node.js and recommends libraries associated with that )
- Do exercises
- Learn how classes work in JS ( Note this is amusing to me since JS does not have classes in the typical sense [ they are implemented via libraries with prototypes and closures ] )
- Learn what Es5, Es6, ES7 are ( There are good things here, but be aware that most of these features are not implemented in most browsers and will requires shims and/or translators to even function. Be careful as they may work in your browser but not others. Test! )
- Read JS blogs and watch JS educational videos
- Practice
It's an okay article. If you are clueless how to start learning seriously this should help. Some decent books and websites are mentioned by name.
I think the "every JS developer needs to learn XYZ" is a bit off though. This is one man's perspective.
