The JavaScript Learning Landscape in 2018

This is textbook. Not your textbook; my textbook. As I've been converting gRSShopper into a modern web application slash personal learning environment, I've had to dramatically improve my knowledge of Javascript. This article describes my learning landscape in this endeavour (minus the actual textbooks, because I'm cheap - but I have done that, with other subjects, working through the examples beginning to end). The blogs and newsletters provide me with a steady dose of insight (and yes, I read the ones listed here - it's uncanny). I listen to podcasts on the drive into work (different ones, though). I watch some videos, but not many (I'm impatient). And there's a lot of doing. Experimenting in CodePen. Using diagnostics in Firefox. It's completely informal - there isn't a course to be found. And it's working.
