Create awesome JavaScript driven web apps with modern JavaScript from the very beginning right through to ninja-level.

Hey gang, and welcome to your first step on the path to becoming a JavaScript ninja! In this course I’ll be teaching you my absolute favourite language (JavaScript!) from the very beginning, right through to creating fully-fledged, dynamic & interactive web experiences.

We’ll cover all the basics to get you up-and-running quickly, before diving in to some of the really fun stuff like web-page manipulation, creating interactive forms, popups & other cool effects. Along the way we’ll be using the latest additions to the JavaScript specification (ES6, 7 & beyond) and maintaining good coding standards to keep our code clean and effective!

Once we master the basics, we’ll dive into several real-life JavaScript projects, including an interactive quiz, a weather app, a real-time chat application and a small UI library you can use in all your future projects!

We’ll also take a look at some more advanced topics – object oriented programming, asynchronous code, real-time databases and much more. Finally, we’ll be setting up a modern work-flow using Webpack & Babel, so that by the end of this course you’ll be no less than a black-belt JavaScript developer with a lot of coding techniques in your tool-belt.

What you’ll learn

  • Learn how to program with modern JavaScript, from the very beginning to more advanced topics
  • Learn all about OOP (object-oriented programming) with JavaScript, working with prototypes & classes
  • Learn how to create real-world front-end applications with JavaScript (quizes, weather apps, chat rooms etc)
  • Learn how to make useful JavaScript driven UI components like popups, drop-downs, tabs, tool-tips & more.
  • Learn how to use modern, cutting-edge JavaScript features today by using a modern workflow (Babel & Webpack)
  • Learn how to use real-time databases to store, retrieve and update application data
  • Explore API’s to make the most of third-party data (such as weather information)
