You don't have to use every damn framework and compile to JS language out there ... You will do just fine with vanilla JS! Most important parts to learn about JavaScript: 1. Scope and closures, like that your function can access variables from a parent scope, and that those variables are frozen in time. 2. Events and "async", like button.onclick = someFunction, where "someFunction" is called when a user click on the button. If you learn just those two concepts you will know more then 95% of the JavaScript programmers out there and it will be more fun to write JavaScript! And all those frameworks are no longer needed.
