Description

JavaScript is the lingua franca of the web, but before using it to create dynamic websites, you need to understand how it works. In this course, Joe Chellman explores the syntax behind the JavaScript language. He shows how to "speak" JavaScript by gaining an understanding of variables, types, objects, arrays, operators, control structures, loops, and functions, through a series of hands-on examples that put these ideas into action. After completing this course, most developers will grasp the core syntax of JavaScript and how this scripting language works to build powerful and complex functionality on the web.

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.
