Tips for passing Salesforce certified JavaScript Developer I Certification

 Motivation behind this


Today (27th of August, 2020), I have successfully passed JavaScript Developer I Certification. I have been working on JavaScript from a long time along with Lightning Web Components and it has evolved a lot from last few years with ECMA script.

As Salesforce has come up with this exclusive certification with JavaScript language which drives me to learn and earn this which eventually will help me on LWC and other open source development.

This certification is on high demand now-a-days which motivates me to pass and share my tips.

I have given myself around 3 weeks of study time and happy to see me passed. By the way, this exam is tricky and actually challenges the depth of JavaScript knowledge.

Let's get started!
