Question by Ulmagor · Sep 17, 2012 at 05:54 PM · javascriptbeginnerlearn

What should I learn first for Javascript?

Hi, I am a beginner with Unity3d and I suck with Javascript so I want to learn it. Where should I start? There's lot of stuff in Javascript and I do not know where to start.

Thanks

I personally wouldn't. Learn C# your professional career will thank me later.

One of the biggest problems with UnityScript is poor documentation. Everything is scattered and not everything is documented. Here are some resources I used when learning it:

  • Newbie guide to Unity Javascript (long)

  • Head First into Unity with UnityScript

  • UnityScript Keywords

  • Unity Coding: Arrays, Hashtables and Dictionaries explained

  • Mono Upgrade Details (important new additions to US that are not covered anywhere else AFAIK)

Even so, you will still be using Google a LOT to search the forum.unity3d.com forum for answers.

Also, here are some very important references regardless of the language you use:

  • MSDN .NET Framework

  • Unity Script Reference (this goes without saying :)

Just a bit of advice... I would recommend you seriously consider learning C# instead of UnityScript for many reasons. See my answer in this question if you're interested.

Those are some great links. I have most of those as quick links in my bookmarks, and they've worked out great.

This is a great resource to start with: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/34015-Newbie-guide-to-Unity-Javascript-(long)

I'd also learn code commenting as early as possible. (// and / /)
