ABOUT THIS COURSE

This course shows you how to build front-end web applications with plain JavaScript without using any (third-party) framework or library. It follows a "learning by doing" approach, which means that you don't have to read lots of text about the intricacies of JavaScript. Instead, you’ll focus on the essential parts of JavaScript and read only the minimum needed to start coding your first app. Learning from the examples provided in the course can quickly improve your understanding of basic concepts and techniques. By working your way through the code of these example apps and using it as a starting point for your projects, you’ll learn best practices and experience the joy of building something that really works and that you fully understand.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
