Upon completion, you will be able to:

» Explain how the web works
» Create the structure and style of a website using HTML & CSS
» Apply interactivity to a site using programming fundamentals in JavaScript
» Host a website on a server
» Know the basic technical vocabulary to communicate effectively with front-end web developers

DESCRIPTION

Get Prepared for the Web Development Immersive

Beginning your web development journey can sometimes be a little intimidating. This course was created specifically to help change that and to jumpstart your career as a Web Developer. It is geared to those that have no previous experience with JavaScript, giving you the foundation to apply your skills to various applications.

Why take this course?

New to programming or feeling misdirected by self-teaching? This program was developed for you! With a curriculum designed to give you the fundamental building blocks of programming with JavaScript, this workshop is intended to provide you a foundation for your programming journey.  You will learn the technical skills needed to confidently explore your interests in web development and programming.

What You’ll Learn:

No matter your existing skill level, by the end of this workshop you will learn:

• The syntax of JavaScript


• How to structure the state of your programs


• How to manipulate complex data structures


• How to write functions for reusable code


• Interacting with the web browser using jQuery


• Basic HTML and CSS (for a deeper dive into interfaces, see our HTML & CSS Online Flex Course)


• How to create dynamic, event-driven interfaces that you can use to build complex applications

Who Should Take this Class?

This workshop is for anyone interested in learning to understand how to program interactive websites using JavaScript. Typically, we find there are three categories of students:

• Hobbyist: Come and test the waters and see if working with programming logic and coding is something you enjoy.


• Future Web Designer: You want to learn more about JavaScript in order to build powerful interfaces that can respond to user input


• Future Web Development Immersive Student: If you are considering becoming a Galvanize Web Development student, you will find this workshop will give you the tools and techniques you are expected to know to enter the program.
