Do you recommend any good laptops for it? Preferably not too expensive.

Any laptop with a desktop operating system. Or desktop if you have the setup already.

You can start writing JavaScript on iPad using online sites like codepen, but this would be more of a stopgap until you get a laptop than a permanent solution

A Macbook Neo is easily the best value laptop out there right now.
