I would like to add some ressources to the list

11. W3Schools

Another great ressource to learn (not only) Javascript: From Wikipedia: W3Schools is a freemium educational website for learning coding online. Initially released in 1998, it derives its name from the World Wide Web but is not affiliated with the W3 Consortium. W3Schools offers courses covering many aspects of web development. W3Schools also publishes free HTML templates. It is run by Refsnes Data in Norway.

12. flems.io

Flems is a platform for testing and showcasing (HTML/CSS/JS) code. Unlike other online IDEΒ΄s like jsfiddle or codepen, you do not need an account, as the code is completely "stored" in the URL. This is my favourite way to deliver code example, as it has absolutely no sideeffects.

I don't want to jump on the "stack overflow" hate-train, but I believe that once you get over those first programming learning curves, you won't be needing it anymore. You'll eventually end up just answering and editing q&a after that.

Good suggestions, nonetheless.
