Introduction to jQuery
Requirements
- Introduction to HTML
- Introduction to Javascript
- Intermediate Javascript
Description
In this course we cover the basics of jQuery including effects, manipulation, dynamic creation of elements, and interaction events. While Javascript is a very powerful language, we often have to write a lot of boilerplate code to work with different browsers. jQuery abstracts some of that logic away from us, so that we have more utilitarian functions that we can work with. Essentially, it’s a library that boosts Javascript front-end development.
We’ll explore jQuery to add and remove elements from the Document Object Model (DOM), we’ll look at event handling, and look at some other techniques that jQuery allows us to use that will make our development a bit easier.

- 28 videos with over 80 minutes of lectures and explanations.

Instructor
Hey folks, thank you for visiting.
RefactorU was founded in late 2012 in Boulder, Colorado, and was one of the first accelerated web application development "bootcamps" in North America. Launching its first cohort in 2013, it was the first full-stack Javascript bootcamp in Colorado, the first to be approved by Colorado's Division of Private Occupational Schools, and the second bootcamp in the United States to be approved to accept the Post-9/11 GI Bill and related U.S. armed services educational benefits. Between 2013 and 2017, RefactorU helped over 300 people accelerate and/or completely reboot their careers in a 10-week, full-time, onsite learning experience, and thousands more learners through hybrid and self-paced courses.
In 2017, RefactorU's owners needed to step away from the business for personal reasons, and ceased operations in 2017. As a result, all of RefactorU's courses on Udemy are free of charge, and any courses that could not be made free (due to Udemy's pricing policies), were removed from the catalog. That also means that the content has not been updated since 2017, any messages you send way won't be answered.
Still, we hope you find value in what is here, and we wish you well in all your endeavors. LLAP.
