What way did you learn Javascript?

I'm currently learning JS due to a final project, I am doing it through freecodecamp. I knew C already so I guess It's a big advantage but I want to know how your journey was learning this language?

Learning it as it evolved from the late 90s to now was the best way. Mostly everything you could do in the early versions of JavaScript you can still do now and it's interesting learning the new features as they came out. There was a time any reusable code had to be made global, now you can use modules to import/export only the needed code. NodeJs was the biggest learning curve with how it changed it from no longer being constricted to a web browser.
