JavaScript Course

The year is 1995 and the World Wide Web looks … pretty boring. After all, the Web is in its early stages and the beautifying power of CSS won’t be supported by a popular browser for another year. So, for now, interactivity within web pages is scarce, to say the least. That is until December 1995 when Netscape Navigator, a major browser at the time, released JavaScript. This programming language gave developers the ability to create dynamic content on a web page. Oh, and did we mention that JavaScript’s creator, Brendan Eich, was only given 10 business days to build it?

JavaScript continues to be a mainstay in modern web development to this day and a must-learn language for tech industry hopefuls. Our free JavaScript course provides an introductory tour of this language’s capabilities. It’s designed to help you understand the impact it has on web content through project-based learning.

Free Coding Classes

You can learn one of the most popular coding languages without having to worry about the cost. At Kenzie Academy, learning the basics by taking free coding classes can be your first step toward a career in tech. Our JavaScript course is a free coding bootcamp for newbies that compliments what you learned about HTML and CSS in the first two Kenzie Free courses.

HTML is used to structure a web page, CSS helps define presentation, and JavaScript is the catalyst that tells every component how to interact with each other. Much like the HTML and CSS free coding classes, the JavaScript course relies on hands-on experience. It gives you the opportunity to learn its principles as you create a project of your own by encouraging you to:

Work in the JavaScript console
Understand JavaScript’s use of arithmetic
Learn variables and their impact on JavaScript
Write web page content using the document object model (DOM)
Organize code with functions
Recognize and understand commonly used coding terminology

The Value of JavaScript

JavaScript continues to be a mainstay in modern web development and is widely regarded as the go-to option for programmers looking to shine in both frontend and backend web development, as well as a reasonable option for mobile development, desktop app development, and even data science and machine learning.

JavaScript is often used to build games that run on browsers and in app development. Not to mention, programmers who learn JavaScript first have an easier time learning other less-accessible languages, such as Java or C#. And the benefits are not only there for programmers!

JavaScript is the programming language of the web and essential if a company wants to have a significant presence on the internet. The usability of JavaScript is so apparent that it has been the primary language in the development of virtually all complex websites and apps, including in the development of websites such as:

Twitter
Spotify
Discord
Twitch
eBay
Uber
