Hey guys, I wanted to talk about a topic that's been bugging me, The lack of JS Tutorials and i'm pretty sure JS is used in Roblox scripting correct me if i'm wrong but i want to find a good handbook or something i have got down most basics in python and want to move on to JS. If you have anything it would be helpful thanks for your time.

JavaScript isn't used in ROBLOX scripting -- Lua is. You'll find JS used mostly in web-related applications.

java script is basically like a replacement of flash now and it has more tools, JS can be used usually in some engines, web pages, scripts (by themselves), or applications

they are similar languages though, javascript and lua, but lua is a fairly easy language, the syntax stays the same for the most part and a lot of things is handled in c so you don't have to do them yourself

you can learn lua from a variety of different places, youtube, roblox wiki, etc

there are a lot of things in roblox that if you use you have to look off-site though such as applying trigonometry, rotation matrix, quaternions, etc

If there are things you don't understand from the Wiki or trial and error in ROBLOX Studio, then YouTube is your best friend my... Amigo.

Wait, scripting of the site or engine?
The site runs on HTML and JavaScript,
but the engine (roblox player) runs on C++ and some Java.

And also, I recommend you do not use CodeCademy, this is just by my personal experience, use ########## ## has helped me and benefited me so much more than CodeCademy, and plus they have a larger selection of programming languages than CodeCademy.

I watch people make games in different languages and that basically just explains it to me.
I learned Java script by watching people make games in Java script every day for a few hours.
