I learned javascript 6 months ago and made many projects to practice it. After that I stop learning and revising javascript as I learned MERN stack. But now I am not feeling confident about my javascript skills.
Should I revise it again or should I continue to learn and practice Reactjs?
You should learn Javascript again if you want to be a good developer. There are 2 kinds of developers out there:
How group - This kind of developer knows how to do things. They know the syntaxes. Then when working on large applications they can't debug things well. They're just copy, & paste experts.
Why group - These people not only know how to do it but also know why the code doing this way. For example, they don't only know what is lexical scoping, but also how scoping works under the hood using a closure.
End of the day, I wanna say, if you only know how to write Javascript, then Javascript seems like a magical thing for you. But if you also know how Javascript works under the hood, you will be a magical thing to Javascript.

I'm a beginner web developer, I decided to learn my first framework so it's my first time to use a framework and I decided to learn Angularjs & Laravel. which one should I start with ?
PS: I code in PHP and I know PHP OOP, also I'm kinda good at JS
Depends on what you want to do.
Basically, if you want to learn by your the self, I think the best way is to have a project.
Not a huge one which should start a revolution on internet, and that you will stop in two months.
One that you need to use and develop for a long time.
It can be lot of things, I let you think about it.
So if you want to do some JS project (canvas, multimedia streaming etc...), you should learn angularJS.
If you prefer to do some data / or server side project, it is better to learn Laravel.
You probably can find some project which need both of frameworks =) - mapping, or multimedia big data I do not know.
I think you should learn Angular first, as it is comparatively easy then Laravel.
Best tutorial I think for AngularJS is its official free course http://campus.codeschool.com/courses/shaping-up-with-angular-js/
I learnt from this videos only, its really helpful

When I looked at the new MacBook website from Apple I saw a nice smooth scrolling effect on the wireless page. I started digging in the JavaScript and found an uncompressed JavaScript file and I was blown away. (https://www.apple.com/v/macbook/a/scripts/wireless.built.js)
There were so many comments, and you could almost follow what they were thinking when they created this script. I tried to create a JavaScript file like this on my own, but in less than 5 minutes I figured out that it was almost impossible to keep it nice looking and understandable. So my question is: What program does Apple use to create this kind of JavaScript files? It is not a default code editor, but a program that supports built file. There are some good ones out there, but they all have libraries you have to follow, this one is just plain JavaScript and nothing more.
There's no tool to magically make your code look nice.
Apple has a strict code style guide that requires all developers to show discipline when writing code, or their code will be rejected from entering their repo.
It's nothing special really, just proper developer discipline.

I am a beginner in JavaScript. I know the basics though but not an expert in JavaScript. I just wanted to know whether I can start learning Angularjs without knowing advance JavaScript? And what are the best resources where I can start learning advance JavaScript?
The best course I know for learning Angular JS is udemy.com/learn-angularjs. I took the whole 6.5 hours course and I'm utterly satisfied of it. However, after following this course, I was sure of two things : 1. AngularJS is terrific; 2. it's not for JS beginners. You have to understand a lot of things in JS, starting with objects and scope, and have a decent experience with it before diving into Angular. But that's just my opinion.

I've recently finished watching some beginner JavaScript tutorials; it's quite easy to understand. I'm trying to look for intermediate ones now, but I can't find any. So I've decided to not waste time while looking for some continuation on my JavaScript journey. What should I learn next? I prefer that which is important, and perhaps, closely related to JavaScript.
It depends on what your goal is, and what you have already learned.
If you want to become a web developer, you should learn some server-side web languages like PHP or ASP.NET.
If you want to become a general developer, it would be useful to know systems languages like Java or C++.
If you want to be a computer scientist, studying algorithms might be a good start.

NOTE: I am not in any way asking whether or not I should learn JavaScript before jQuery. I understand that jQuery is simply a framework for JavaScript and as such JavaScript should be learned first.
I currently know HTML and CSS and I'm looking to expand into JavaScript. I have used several resources from tuts+ to treehouse to learn HTML and CSS, but recently I stumbled across a website called code school that I really enjoy using.
When I go to their JavaScript section, it appears they skip JavaScript all together and jump right into jQuery. My question is - should I learn JavaScript on some other website before learning jQuery on code school? Or do you think it's a good idea to just learn jQuery right out of the gate like they basically force you to do on their site?
jQuery is just a Javascript library. You can't use jQuery without knowing Javascript.
However, by following jQuery tutorials, you may be able to pick up enough Javascript to get along. But if this is the first procedural language you're using, you may also get very confused.
NetTuts, as good as it is for exposing a variety of different frameworks, is not a great place to learn jQuery or JavaScript. I would recommend getting your hands on some books referenced here:
