JavaScript Essential Training

This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course JavaScript Essential Training. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

JavaScript is a scripting language of the web. As the web evolves from a static to a dynamic environment, technology focus is shifting from static markup and styling—frequently handled by content management systems or automated scripts—to dynamic interfaces and advanced interaction. Once seen as optional, JavaScript is now becoming an integral part of the web, infusing every layer with its script.

Through practical examples and mini-projects, this course helps you build your understanding of JavaScript piece by piece, from core principles like variables, data types, conditionals, and functions through advanced topics including loops, and DOM scripting. Along the way, instructor Morten Rand-Hendriksen provides challenges that allow you to put your new skills to the test.

Instructions

This repository does not have any branches. Download the entire repository and you get the exercise files in their final state.

Each folder corresponds with a movie with an exercise file. The naming convention is CHAPTER#_MOVIE#. As an example, the folder named 02_03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter.

Some movies will have a beginning and an end state. In the exercise files, the end-state for a movie is marked with an e for "end" as in 02_03e. This folder contains the code as it is at the end of the movie.

Installing

1. To use these exercise files, you must have the following installed:
   • A code editor (VS Code is recommended)
   • Node.js
   • Prettier code formatter extension
   • ESLint extension
2. From the root folder, open the terminal and enter the command nmp install to install dependencies.
