Modern JavaScript From The Beginning

Master Modern JavaScript from the absolute beginning and progress all the way to advanced JavaScript development. This 40+ hour course covers JavaScript fundamentals, how JavaScript works under the hood, DOM manipulation, events, asynchronous programming, object-oriented programming, modern development tooling and full-stack JavaScript development. TOPICS COVERED: JAVASCRIPT FUNDAMENTALS Variables, let, const, var, data types, primitive and reference types, type conversion, operators, type coercion, strings, numbers, Math, dates and DateTimeFormat. ARRAYS & OBJECTS Arrays, array methods, nested arrays, concat, spread operator, object literals, object methods, destructuring, JSON, Object.keys, Object.values, Object.entries and object manipulation. FUNCTIONS & SCOPE Function declarations, function expressions, parameters, arguments, default parameters, rest parameters, arrow functions, IIFE, global scope, function scope, block scope, nested scope and closures. EXECUTION CONTEXT & CALL STACK Execution context, memory creation phase, execution phase, global execution context, function execution context and the JavaScript call stack. LOGIC & CONTROL FLOW If/else, nested conditions, switch statements, truthy and falsy values, logical operators, logical assignments and ternary operators. LOOPS & ITERATION For loops, while loops, do-while loops, for...of, for...in, break, continue and practical iteration challenges. DOM MANIPULATION DOM selectors, elements, attributes, styles, classes, creating elements, inserting elements, removing elements, traversing the DOM and dynamically modifying web pages. EVENTS Event listeners, event objects, keyboard events, mouse events, form events, event bubbling, event delegation and interactive web applications. ARRAY HIGHER-ORDER METHODS forEach, map, filter, reduce, find, some, every, sort and practical data transformation. ERROR HANDLING & DEBUGGING JavaScript errors, try/catch, throwing errors, debugging techniques, browser developer tools and practical error handling. ASYNCHRONOUS JAVASCRIPT Callbacks, promises, async/await, the Fetch API, AJAX, API requests, handling asynchronous operations and working with external data. JAVASCRIPT UNDER THE HOOD Execution context, call stack, event loop and asynchronous JavaScript concepts to understand how JavaScript actually executes code. OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING Constructors, prototypes, prototype inheritance, classes, inheritance, encapsulation and object-oriented JavaScript patterns. MODULES & MODERN JAVASCRIPT ES modules, import/export, modular application structure and reusable JavaScript code. LOCAL STORAGE & BROWSER APIs Local Storage, JSON data, browser APIs and persistent client-side application data. TESTING Write unit tests for JavaScript algorithms and improve code quality through testing. MODERN TOOLING & WORKFLOW NPM, package management, Webpack, Babel, file structure, plugins, loaders and creating a modern JavaScript development environment. FULL-STACK JAVASCRIPT Build a full-stack application using a Webpack frontend together with Node.js, Express and MongoDB. PROJECT-BASED LEARNING Build 5 real-world projects and 10+ mini-projects while applying the concepts learned throughout the course. The course also provides starter and final project code, a JavaScript Sandbox for organizing learning exercises, and links to project repositories.
