This course will introduce you to jQuery, a framework for building interactive web pages with animations, visual effects, and advanced functionality. You will start with a brief introduction to the course and jQuery. 

Next, you will explore the core concepts in jQuery, such as event-handling, animations, and in-browser manipulation of the document object model. 

Finally, you will learn about the AJAX framework in jQuery for dynamic content loading in web pages. On top of that, you will be working on an interactive project throughout the course with quizzes and challenges at the end of each chapter.

The Complete Guide to jQuery

Fading effects allow us to **fade out** or **fade in** certain elements on a webpage. The relevant effects are discussed in detail below.
 
## `fadeOut()` effect

Given a selector, the **`fadeOut()`** effect fades out and hides the set of matched elements from a webpage. The `fadeout()`effect functions like `hide()`, but it has a delay. Like the effects studied earlier, `fadeOut()` can also take an optional `speed` parameter.

For example, in the _"Fade Out"_ button event handler below, we fade out all the `div` elements in 2000 ms using the `fadeOut()` effect in **line 3**.
