JavaScript
Introduction

Course Overview

JavaScript is a very powerful, yet easy to learn programming language that will allow web developers and designers to add behaviours to their static HTML pages with ease. This course will provide a foundational knowledge of the subject and get them comfortable in writing, reading and using this dynamic language. This is especially important considering HTML5, as CSS and JavaScript are its integral components. Knowledge of (X)HTML and CSS is strongly recommended.
