Starting javascript development - what to do?
<p>Im in need for some serious javascript for job and for personal projects.</p>

<p>For what I've understood, js is a very "free" language with no standard lib and in which we can do just whatever we want. I would like to learn it right.</p>

<p>It seems that JS world has matured and good practices have surfaced. I hear about stuff like backbone, or frameworks, but things aren't clear for me. A search on google returns a lot of old (2008, 2009) pages.</p>

<p>I'm an experienced programmer and of course I'm already able to hack some javascript and jquery. What I target now is serious client-side JS, Node.js and maybe meteor.</p>

<p>So please would you give me advices and pointers on good, up to date, ressources for :</p>

<ul>
<li>tutorials and references</li>
<li>explanations on the good way to use JS / what to avoid</li>
<li>good "standard lib"/ framework</li>
<li>good tools</li>
</ul>

<p>And of course any other useful advice.</p>
