What is the best course to take?

Hey guys,

I already have an idea on how to create a static website with HTML and CSS and have a basic understanding of JS's fundamentals. I learned it from online tutorials from youtube and Freecodecamp however the changes made on FCC has made lost progress since they added more curriculum on web design and all my codes got lost all together. While I can say my HTML and CSS skills is intermediate(here is a little proof: https://codepen.io/codehungry/pen/RJPPPX) however my JS skills is definitely noob level hence I wanted to dig deeper into learning JS and become a full fledged developer but going over the front end developer course which means learning HTML and CSS all over again seems to be counter productive for me. Will it be wise for me to jump into the fullstack web developer course and further learn JS through that?

Right now, I feel like I am all over the place. I have been teaching myself to code for the past 6 months and I intend to land a front-end developer job before this year ends. Help!

I suggest starting with Beginning JavaScript. You can skip or fast-forward through videos as long as you easily complete the challenges and quizzes. But once they get tough, back up to the start of the current stage and start watching.
