Hey gang, and welcome to your first step on the path to becoming a JavaScript ninja! In this course, I'll be teaching you my absolute favorite language (JavaScript!) from the very beginning, right through to creating fully-fledged, dynamic & interactive web experiences.

We'll cover all the basics to get you up and running quickly, before diving into some of the really fun stuff like web-page manipulation, creating interactive forms, popups & other cool effects. Along the way, we'll be using the latest additions to the JavaScript specification (ES6, 7 & beyond) and maintaining good coding standards to keep our code clean and effective!

We'll also take a look at some more advanced topics - Built-in Objects, Array work using Firebase (including a new chapter about Firebase 9), and much more. Finally, we'll be setting up a modern workflow using Webpack & Babel, so that by the end of this course you'll be no less than a black-belt JavaScript developer with a lot of coding techniques in your tool belt.

------ What You'll Learn ------

This is a long course, with just about every fact about Javascript you could ever hope to know. Here's a brief subset of the topics you'll cover:

• Master the basics of the language, easily understanding variables, objects, arrays, and functions

• Understand how to design the structure of the code you write, leading to beautiful and easy-to-read programs

• Leverage Javascript's built-in methods to increase your productivity regardless of what libraries or frameworks you use

• Develop practical skills around higher-order functions that you will utilize for years to come
