Hey everyone,

 

I am fairly new to Javascript, HTML5 and CSS - What would you recommend for a total newbie getting started in these three awesome languages?

  • What would you recommend as a starting project?
  • What resources would you recommend for me to get started with?

Thank you for your time,

There's a list of javascript learning resources you might have a look at in the coding and game design sub-forum

You would be well advised to choose something very simple for a starting project, think along the lines of breakout or space invaders.

If you really want to master JavaScript you need to read "The secrets of the JavaScript Ninja" by John Resig (the creator of jQuery), is the best book out there ;) after reading that you will be able to learn any javascript library easily (including Phaser) :)
