If you were to ask a random person on the street the question "What is a browser?", you'll most likely get a variety of (incorrect) answers. For proof, check this out.
You might be one of those people right now, but after this module no more. In JavaScript2 you'll learn all about how to use JavaScript within the browser.
In order to successfully complete this module you will need to master the following:
- Understand what the DOM is
- Use the basics of DOM Manipulation
- Differentiate between synchronous and asynchronous operations
- Gain awareness of the inner workings of JavaScript
- Learn to think based on principles, instead of libraries and frameworks
This repository consists of 3 essential parts:
Reading materials: this document contains all the required theory you need to know while you're coding. It's meant as both study material and as a reference to understand what you're doing.Homework: this document contains the instructions for each week's homework.Lesson Plans: this part is meant for teachers as a reference. However, as a student don't be shy to take a look at it as well!
After your first class you should start off with checking the reading materials for that week. At the beginning that would be the Week 1 Reading. Study all the concepts and try to get the gist of everything. After, you can get started with the homework for that week.
If you have any questions or if something is not entirely clear ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, please ask/comment on Slack!
