Ask HN: So I just finished the JavaScript course on Codecademy, now what?

Since you're bored: https://github.com/bolshchikov/js-must-watch

What're your goals? It can help to direct you to the best place for what you're looking for out of JavaScript. I think it's useful to learn vanilla JavaScript well before learning libraries and frameworks.

Useful books. The first is online and free (the other two are as well, somewhere): http://eloquentjavascript.net/

http://www.amazon.com/Professional-JavaScript-Developers-Nic...

http://www.amazon.com/JavaScript-Patterns-Stoyan-Stefanov/dp...

Solve toy problems to solidify knowledge of methods and syntax: http://coderbyte.com/CodingArea/Challenges/

Good material- lots of video and problems. Not free but worth it: https://www.codeschool.com/ (makers of the jQuery videos below)

Bootstrap - popular front-end framework: http://getbootstrap.com/

Actually build something! A To Do List, a website, a game.

See some different frameworks do the same things: http://todomvc.com/

jQuery: http://try.jquery.com/

Here is a good free node tutorial: http://nodeschool.io/

Some tracks to learn, and get connected with non-profits to make useful things: http://www.freecodecamp.com/

Contributing to open source projects is another route.

We are creating Zyring (http://zyring.com) exactly for that purpose, so people can actually put their learnings from courses into practice by implementing hands-on projects. We will have a Frontend development track, in which JavaScript will be utilized.

I recommend learning how to utilize what you already know first before moving on. Try building some basic stuff using plain JS
