My 2024 learning goals and resources. In this post I outline my learning goals for 2024 and list the resources I used.

2024 goals

During January 2024 I finally completed the Mimo JavaScript course. This course took many months, and was my primary source of training for JavaScript. It also represented the end of chapter 1 of my learning journey (i.e. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript ). I'll continue to use learning resources for these technologies, but it's now time to focus on chapter 2 i.e. SQL and Python. Again, I'll be using Mimo as the primary learning resource for these.
