Front end developer difficulty levels

Hi !

If I remember correctly, the front end career path has three levels beginner, intermediate and expert. Each level has html, css, js and some other things. Is this correct ? Or is there a single level course in front end path ?

all you have to do is complete this track. It's probably one of the best tracks on teamtreehouse. For jquery um.. I think your better off with learning from a book.

For introductory with little programming knowledge you can start with Eloquent JavaScript. This can be little bit challenging if you have no programming background. Also, this book is freely available at online with coding sandbox. So you can try them out first and buy it if you want to support the author. http://eloquentjavascript.net/

If you want to know more about language itself then try JavaScript: the Good Part and 'Professional JavaScript for Web Developers' These are not beginner book though and it more talks about what's happening behind the scene.

None of above talks about JQuery even though they are not too old. But they are really nice to have collection.

I personally didn't like JavaScript: the Definitive Guide due to its sample being way too commenty.
