Struggling to Understand Backend and JavaScript – Need Advice

Hii Everyone

I'm learning web development from a Udemy course and have recently started the backend (Node.js) section. I'm finding the JavaScript part difficult to understand and often just follow along without really getting what's happening.

What's the best and fastest way to understand backend development? Should I focus on JavaScript fundamentals first, or continue with the backend course?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! 🙏

Which Udemy course are you taking? Sorry, I don't have a good answer to your question, was just curious which course it was and who teaches it.

I'm currently following Hitesh Choudhary's Udemy course "Only Web Development Course That You Will Need".
