Overview

In Learn Modern JavaScript: Getting Started, you are taught the fundamentals of JavaScript the right way. This course contains 11 sections, 110 different topics, over 13 hours of video tutorials, 12 exercises and everything you need for the proper grounding in JavaScript.

JavaScript has changed and matured since its humble beginnings in 1995. One of the original goals of JavaScript in those early years was to make it easy for beginners. That goal has made it accessible for all types of people. However, this has also meant that JavaScript has been taught and learned incompletely by many. We won't skip topics. Some topics may seem more advanced, but that is because they are crucial to a complete grounding of JavaScript.

If you are ready to jump into the world of JavaScript or you want to increase you new found skills, this course is for you!

If you would like see the teaching style used in this course, you can take a look at the tutorials I've published on my All Things JavaScript YouTube channel.

Make sure you download the exercise files from the class project section to help you get the most out of this course.
