Description
JavaScript is the primary language used to develop interactive and dynamic front-end web applications. There are multiple web frameworks that use JavaScript (or TypeScript*) such as Angular, Vue, React, Ember, Knockout. This course is intended to teach you the most important features of the JavaScript language so that you can then move on to learning about web frameworks. Because JavaScript primarily lives (and is executed) in the browser, this course will also touch on web topics such as HTML and the Document Object Model (or DOM). In this course we'll talk about:

I am a senior level software engineer with over 35 years experience with a variety of technologies and in a variety of businesses. Currently I develop applications using Microsoft .Net Core and the C# language as well as single page applications using the React JavaScript library. The applications I develop run in a Microsoft Azure PAAS environment.
For a long time I've had a desire to mentor individuals who have the aptitude to be a software developer but, for one reason or another, did not go to college. My Udemy courses are my attempt to fulfill this desire.
