Thanks for the response. Right now I'm focused on Javascript professionally (NodeJS for the backend and React on the frontend). I'd say my long term goals are to give back to the community through open source in some capacity.
In particular, I'd like to contribute to a library or a framework so I guess that would mean understanding the reasoning and the fundaments of why/how the library was created. Whether that means understanding design patterns of Javascript specifically or software fundamentals, I'm not sure.
Sorry if this still sounds too broad, but I'm growing quite bored of working as a typical developer and need a bit of guidance.
