JavaScript

are the JS courses updated?

How can we know if the JS courses here are up to date or not? because i started with JS basics course, and it's teaching var instead of let and const. As for other courses, nodejs, react, are they updated as well? any input would be appreciated so i can decide if i should study here or not! Thank you

Unfortunately keeping up with the technology is a thankless task as it always updates faster than the videos can be updated. But for the most part, changes are generally not breakable. So it's been 2 or 3 years since the React range began and has had at least one update since.

The JavaScript Basics course is the most up to date content on that and I still believe even now it is worth taking. But there are separate workshops that deal with how to use let and const which you can find here.

You should still be able to follow the content on React, Node and Express fairly easily as well.
