The primary objective of this course is to help you progress from a state of being completely unfamiliar with programming to a level of proficiency that enables you to create, code, debug, and execute programs using the JavaScript language, as well as gain a basic understanding of software development principles.

The course centers on essential JavaScript language concepts, covering topics such as syntax and semantics, best coding practices, tools and resources, and coding fundamentals such as variables, data types, type conversion, operators, user input, flow control, functions, error handling, debugging, and problem-solving.

The course will prepare you for jobs and careers connected with widely understood software and web development, which includes not only creating the code itself as a junior developer, but also web designfront-end development, and application testing.

 

You will learn: 

 

- The universal concepts of computer programming

- The syntax and semantics of the JavaScript language

- Practice skills in resolving typical implementation challenges

- Design, develop and debug JS scripts

- Algorithmic and analytical thinking 

- Best practices in programming
