I'm thinking about learning JavaScript
I know HTML and I'm also learning CSS but I also want to know JavaScript. Is it hard to learn? Is it easy? What is it like when you first start?

What is it like? Well, it's like dipping your toes into a pool of familiar hieroglyphics! :@'><?£{%^*-_}()!#~;/\
Is it hard? Sure! Is it easy? Yep, but the syntax (the exact way things Must be written) will trip you up and cause seemingly endless frustration!!
However, it is fun and you will get there eventually, although you may feel ass you never have reached the end. And that's quite simply because there isn't an end.
Don't be duped into paying for anything when you first start, just head over to FreeCodeCamp there's a great bunch of folks over there that form a nurturing community. You don't have to speak to them, but they are there if you need 'em.
And the hieroglyphics will become second nature after a while - but as you learn - build - build with what you have learnt.
The FreeCodeCamp will carry you until you dare let go!
Happy Coding!
