Description

The JavaScript for Beginners course aims to teach students who are new to JavaScript the fundamentals of the programming language. The course is taught by Darragh O'Neill a Udemy Instructor who has has received excellent reviews on the platform and has at present a 4.7 star rating.

As someone who was once new to JavaScript too Darragh knows how hard it can be to learn the language which is why every single line of code we write will be explained clearly and concisely in this course! JavaScript can be a difficult coding language to learn but I promise by the end of this course students will be much more confident working with JavaScript! We start off by learning about variables and the primitive data types of strings, numbers, boolean etc. before working with control flow and decision making concepts such as if statements and loops. The course then teaches students how to declare and invoke functions. We will also cover other topics such as working with Arrays and Objects and of course working with the Document Object Model (the 'DOM').

The course also contains several mini-projects and challenges so we can apply the JavaScript syntax that we have learnt. The course has overs 13+ hours of content and by the end of this course students will be familiar with all the fundamental aspects of the JavaScript language including data types, variables, let, const var, arrays, objects, functions, manipulating the DOM and more.
