Whether it's career development, office politics, industry trends, or improving technical skills, we cover all sorts of topics here.

Let's see what we got...

Today's question is:

I'm just getting started with JavaScript and have realized that there are quite a few frameworks out there... how do you choose one? Is it best for me to try and learn vanilla JS to start off or am I fine to move on to frameworks early on?

Share your thoughts and let's help a fellow DEV member out! Remember to keep kind and stay classy. 💚
