For all JavaScript beginners but also for more experienced users that would like a reminder about basic concepts we recommend "The Complete Guide to Loops in JavaScript" by "JavaScript Teacher".
React developers will definitely enjoy "A (re)introduction to React" by Ankita Masand while all Aurelia developers and all interested in this great framework, will benefit from part 2 of three parts series "How do we React?" by Rob Eisenberg.
