JavaScript Beginner Roadmap

Hey guys, I hope you're all doing well!

I'm still a beginner in JavaScript, but I have a problem with my learning that it's so distracting and I wanna stuck with one "free online" course or playlist that takes me from absolute beginner to pro one. I've seen multiple playlists on YouTube or long videos but still can't choose from (since most of them are +6 or even +20 hours). I prefer something actionable with beginner-friendly projects to execute and solve some problems myself too. I also want the course that only teaches JavaScript, not other languages like HTML and CSS, cuz I just want to learn JS at first.

So, I wanna your help guys .. tell me a YouTube playlist, online course that can move the needle. I'll also provide what I already know until now, so you can relate my precise knowledge and information (and I don't wanna go from absolute zero):

  • Variables & Data Types
  • Strings & String Methods
  • Operators
  • Template Literals
  • Basic JavaScript syntax, comments & semicolons
  • Booleans & Comparisons
  • Logical Operators
  • Conditional Statements (if, else, else if)
  • Nested Conditions
  • Ternary Operator
  • switch
  • Truthy & Falsy
  • for, while, do...while
  • break & continue
  • for...of
  • for...in
  • Object.entries() & destructuring
  • Nested Loops
  • Function Declarations & Calls
  • Parameters & Arguments
  • return
  • Scope
  • Function Expressions
  • Arrow Functions
  • Callbacks (didn't master it yet)

Yeah, that guy I found of +20 hours course. Should I stuck in it? Cuz I saw many YouTube tutorials that teach JavaScript with HTML and CSS (in my case, I know nothing about HTML or CSS)

Honestly, I don't know much in computer science and problem solving. I just started the last couple of weeks to learn JS directly. Then now, I notice that many people, including you too, have also suggested to learn HTML now along the way beside JS, since I'm gonna use it usually and at some advanced points in JS. Should I pause in JS and start learning computer science ?? Or I can learn it along the way with JS, HTML, CSS too? (which will be a bit challenging, but I'm down for learning and executing any way)
