Getting Started with Frontend Engineering
Congratulations on taking the first step towards learning Frontend Engineering. We have curated a learning path for you to get started. The path is divided into two sections: Foundations of Web Development and Basics of Data Structures and Algorithms. Start your learning journey with these resources.
Before you begin, here is a must-read article on Things to Know before you begin programming. Also understand in detail the learning journey you will take in your frontend upskilling

GreyAtom's Philosophy on Learning
Learning is for everyone.
We've all got plenty of neuroplasticity left in us! No matter your background, you can learn what you want to learn. Believe that you can, and believe that those around you can too.
Learning is a consequence of thinking.
Reading is one way of getting you to think about things that you wouldn't otherwise. Writing encourages thinking. Discussion encourages thinking. Being active encourages thinking. Do things! Try things! Think about things!
We are all students. We are all teachers.
There's so much to know! We all learn from one another. Embrace opportunities to learn from others, and opportunities to share what you know.
Communicate early and often.
We want to know what you're thinking. Stay connected with us by joining the GreyAtom Learning Community (click to join) and get help from your peers when stuck.
Join our Datagiri Meetup community and continue learning through the free online webinars.
