Our mission

A clear path from "never coded" to "ships features".

The web is built on JavaScript. But for too many beginners, the on-ramp is a maze of paywalled bootcamps, outdated tutorials, or YouTube playlists abandoned halfway through.

We're building a single, free, no-friction place where anyone can learn JS β€” and the languages and frameworks built on top of it β€” in their browser, from zero, without a credit card.

Principles

Three rules we won't break.

πŸ†“

Free, always.

No paywall, no signup wall. The core lessons, references, and examples are free forever β€” funded by ads & optional pro features, never gated behind them.

🎯

Beginner-first.

Short paragraphs. Real examples. Capability-style titles. We optimize for the absolute beginner β€” if they get it, advanced devs definitely will.

πŸš€

Modern by default.

No var, no IE-era patterns, no jQuery muscle memory. ES2024+ syntax, modules, async/await, and the platform APIs that ship today.

The story

Where we are. Where we're going.

  1. 2026
    Began as a single-developer project β€” frustration with outdated tutorials.
  2. Q2 2026
    Core JavaScript track launched: ~140 lessons covering ES2024 fundamentals.
  3. Q3 2026
    Interactive editor & live preview rolled out across every lesson.
  4. Soon
    TypeScript, React & Node.js tracks — with deeper exercises and quizzes for each.
Under the hood

Built with the tools we teach.

jsschools.com is a static site, generated with Astro, written in TypeScript, served from the edge. It loads fast because we send tiny amounts of JavaScript β€” and zero unused frameworks.
