Introducing the JavaScript Language

JavaScript is the lingua franca of the web, but before you can start using it to create dynamic websites, you need to understand how it works. In this workshop trainer and developer Joe Chellman explores the syntax behind the JavaScript language. You’ll learn to “speak” JavaScript by gaining an understanding of variables, types, objects, arrays, operators, control structures, loops, and functions. You’ll also work through a series of hands-on examples that put these ideas into action. After completing this course, you will understand the core syntax of JavaScript and how this scripting language works to build powerful and complex functionality on the web.
