I did Wes Bos's React for Beginner's course and it was fantastic. and he's Canadian!
I did Tyler McGinnis's class over at Egghead as well. Both were top notch.
Started off the year with React, like others have mentioned in this thread "React for Beginners" by Wes Bos was instrumental in my understanding. Styled-Components is probably my favourite React library. I had been using JavaScript regularly but not very modern - JQuery and Dojo - so ES6 was new to me too. Again Wes Bos and additionally FunFunFunction were very helpful here.
In the summer I began an interest in game development. I took the CS50G course on edX taught by Colton Ogden - I don't have enough good words to say about this amazing series of lectures! Thank you so much! Alongside various game design principles, through this I learned Lua, Love2D and a little Unity.
The tail end of the year has been a quest for knowledge with me voraciously acquiring game dev knowledge from blogs, reddit and mostly the amazing resource that is Youtube - C#, Unity, Unreal, CG/GLSL/HLSL, most recently Blender.
Shoutouts to Youtube channels The Art of Code, Makin' Stuff Look Good, Brackeys, Blackthornprod, Blender Guru and of course GDC.
There is so much to learn!
