Front End Masters' Learning Roadmap for Front-End Developers

Front-end development has reached a high level of complexity over the last couple of decades. There are so many things to learn, that many new developers are feeling overwhelmed. That's why multiple handbooks and roadmaps have surfaced over the years. And the latest one comes from Front End Masters, a renowned hub of education in the industry. It is an interactive guide and it's meant to evolve. So be sure to check it often, to see what else was added.
