Hi Yogesh,
It's good to know that are looking forward to step up in your career. To answer your questions-
1. Yes we mandatorily need to have the knowledge of JavaScript to become a ServiceNow developer. HTML and CSS are required for the end user portal development (which is usually created by the client already).
2. You can refer to SAASWithServiceNow Channel on Youtube. You can also refer to NowLearning portal. They also provide certifications and course plans.
3. ServiceNow is vast platform. Everything can not be covered in one go. You need to put in a lot of hands-on practice taking random use cases from online.
All the best! Keep learning!
