Any plan you follow, make sure you learn the "new" JavaScript syntax, ES2017/ES8. I find every ES release significantly simplifies JavaScript for beginners. So make sure it's _at least_ ES6. ES7 brings little to the table, but ES8 in its new features has async/await which is huge.

Shameless plug, I write daily about JavaScript and frontend development topics on my blog https://flaviocopes.com, with a very beginner-friendly style.

I don't have prepared learning plans _yet_, but I plan to work on that very soon, certainly before this summer, as a way to navigate my tutorials and go from level X to level Y.

Yes I definitely need to learn more ES6 and ES7 stuff.

Will be on the lookout for those learning plans!
