JustJavascript is a course by Dan Abramov that builds a mental model of how JavaScript works under the hood, covering core language concepts such as values, variables, scope, and execution.
Commenters call it an amazing way to build a strong mental model of JavaScript, which they argue makes a programmer more productive in the language.

Having a good mental model of a language seems like one of the fastest ways to be more productive in that language. Do you have any recommended resources for developing a strong mental model of python? For reference, Dan Abramov’s course JustJavascript [1] provides an amazing mental model of JavaScript, and Josh Comeau’s css for js developers [2] course provides an amazing model for understanding css. I have 5+ years programming in python but admittedly do not know much about the internals so my mental model is pretty weak!
