Dive into the language of the web with a two-day workshop on intermediate JavaScript. This course takes a practical approach to the language, showing you how to apply basic programming concepts in JavaScript’s natural habitat, the browser. Through a series of in-class coding sessions and labs, you will learn to create dynamic, interactive web pages using JavaScript and its most widely-used library, jQuery.

• dynamically generate and modify HTML with jQuery
• put a website in motion with animations
• capture and use browser events to create interactive websites
• grasp the basics of AJAX to create content-rich websites quickly
• employ best-practices such as linting, organizing code into modules, and composing functions
