JavaScript Crash Course is a fast-paced, thorough introduction to
programming in JavaScript that will have you writing your own software
and web applications in no time. Like the bestselling Python Crash
Course, this hands-on guide is a must-have for anyone who wants to
learn how to code from the ground up, this time using the popular
JavaScript programming language.
JavaScript is the programming language of the internet, the secret sauce
that makes websites dynamic, responsive, and all-around awesome.
JavaScript Crash Course will quickly teach total beginners how to code
in this popular, easy-to-learn language.
This light-hearted, fast-paced introduction teaches you programming

building a Pong-style game. Discover all the important aspects of the
language without delving into expert-level nitty-gritty details or
confusing jargon. You will quickly develop an understanding of key
coding concepts including strings, functions, arrays, and loops, and
then move on to more advanced topics, such as building web-page
interactivity by manipulating the DOM, and drawing graphics with Canvas.
Along the way, you'll have fun using JavaScript to make games, apps, and
even create music.
