If you check out the first chapter on Amazon, the author says that's exactly why and who he wrote it for. He explains how to get the same OO features you're used to out of JS but also how to utilize the unique aspects of JS: http://www.amazon.com/Principles-Object-Oriented-JavaScript-Nicholas-Zakas/dp/1593275404

Hope it helps. It helped me out quite a bit as I transitioned towards more front-end work

I come from the same background. Lot's of good recommendations here. I read this book: http://www.amazon.com/Principles-Object-Oriented-JavaScript-Nicholas-Zakas/dp/1593275404, watched a video series version of Crockford's "Good Parts", and went through this Udacity course: https://www.udacity.com/course/ud015. Hope that helps. Good luck!

To learn JavaScript I'd recommend "The Principles of Object-Oriented JavaScript".

Zakas is a good writer and he knows JavaScript.

I recommend you take on some kind of project that interests you and will expand your skills/knowledge. I made a site blocker chrome extension for one of my first projects and it introduced me to chrome’s api. Or you could try making a portfolio site/blog for yourself to get the hang of different design practice. I used a static site generator for mine. The bottom line is to choose something that interests you and is outside your comfort zone.

I recommend perusing The principles of object oriented javascript and Understanding ECMAScript 6 for a good reference for JavaScript practices and for a good understanding of the language. I also like O’Reilly publishers JavaScript Cookbook and Refactoring JavaScript.

I read this book 3 times already and it helped me landing a decent job recently. You will love it.

I am also subscribed to frontendmasters.com. Not as good though. Please share your links also.

Thanks
