Description

JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, used to create dynamic websites along with a host of other applications. And like any language—whether spoken language or programming language—it takes time and practice to become conversant. In this course, Joe Chellman teaches you how to “speak” JavaScript by familiarizing yourself with the most commonly encountered topics and concepts. Joe starts out with some basic JavaScript syntax and jargon, then covers what you need to know about in the JavaScript toolbox, including variables, types, objects, arrays, operators, control structures, loops, and functions. Join Joe in this course to start your path toward JavaScript fluency and unlock the power of this popular language.

This course is integrated with GitHub Codespaces, an instant cloud developer environment that offers all the functionality of your favorite IDE without the need for any local machine setup. With GitHub Codespaces, you can get hands-on practice from any machine, at any time—all while using a tool that you’ll likely encounter in the workplace.

Instructor's Courses

Right off the top: if you want to reach me about lynda.com / LinkedIn Learning courses, please write to lynda.com technical support: https://www.linkedin.com/help/lynda/ask, or to me directly on my website: http://shoofly.us/contact. Either one of those will get you an infinitely faster response. I've made most of my living as a web developer and designer, and I'm always interested in finding new things to do and learn. The scope tends to be somewhat small because I work with a lot of people and organizations with very small budgets, so I'm not the guy who's trying to Change The World of Web Design. I want to continually do a better job than I did last year. Since 2010, I've been very actively involved in helping other developers, professional, enthusiast, and aspirational, learn some of the tools of the trade. Partnering with publishers like lynda.com/LinkedIn, O'Reilly, Peachpit, and video2brain, I've produced videos on JavaScript, WordPress, Drupal, and version control software. I've also co-written a book and tech edited another. This work might have the longest reach of anything I've done, which is gratifying and kind of crazy. I also am a professional-caliber drummer with a distinct lack of professional ambition. I like to record and play live, but tour relatively rarely.
