What are the courses that an *experienced* embedded & BE SW engineer should take in order to ramp up on FE development?

Hello, I'm an experienced embedded SW engineer (~10y in the industry), trying to ramp up on FrontEnd development - mainly js & react. The intro to js is too basic and covers a lot of super simple general programming guidelines.

What are the courses that someone in my position should take? Would love to get your recommendations in order to better utilize my time. Thanks!

Hi or,

You will likely find the start of every track a little slow with that background, I recommend starting a track and skipping to the code challenges and tests (click the breadcrumbs at the top of the video). If you're unable to pass a challenge or test it's probably time to start watching the videos, feel free to watch them at 1.5x or 2x speed.

This should let you quickly skip to the content relevant to you without having to spend a lot of time watching videos.

The mdn is also a great resource once you're comfortable reading technical documentation (which you obviously are).
