Lecture was easy to understand. I now fully understand what I have been missing and what is confusing to me. I've been doing JS for a couple of years now but not fully understand how it works and how to have full control over it. I guess, what I've learned will help me be the master of Javascript and other frameworks that I will face. I can say now to any framework or libraries of JS, like React, Vue or any... "I am your Master, Now obey my commands". ^_^, Thanks Lawrence.
