What's realistically achievable in 3 months
With intensive practice (2–3 hours a day, no long breaks), 3 months is enough to build a confident grasp of JavaScript basics: variables, functions, arrays, objects, loops, and basic DOM work.
That's enough to solve simple practical problems and build a few small projects — but usually not enough to be fully ready for a junior position.
What not to expect in 3 months
- Being fully prepared for tough technical interviews.
- Confident command of frameworks (React/Vue) on top of the basics.
- A large portfolio of complex projects — 2–3 small ones is more realistic.
A 3-month intensive plan
| Month | Focus |
|---|---|
| 1 | Variables, data types, conditionals, loops, functions |
| 2 | Arrays, objects, the DOM, events |
| 3 | Practice: 2–3 mini-projects, reinforcing all the basics |
