Is it better to learn NodeJS while learning JS or after I get everything else out of the way

You shu6leaen the basic of JS before working with node. That helped me a lot

I second that. first learn vanilla js. then a little of es6 then throw yourself into da node

@JhonDoe uh where can I find good ES6 resources?

ok found a curated list on github. seems nice

scotch in the rocks has some good stuff, I think is not decoupled with node but give it a try. (haven't visited this one in quite a while, but they have quality)

and well, for technical reference this one is good too
