This course will guide you through JavaScript programming essentials by leveraging your existing Python knowledge. It highlights the similarities and differences between JavaScript and Python and covers program structure, built-in data types, variables, operators, arithmetic expressions, user-defined functions, and libraries.
You’ll dive into OOP concepts on classes and objects, control flow statements, and collections (arrays, lists, maps) alongside loops. You’ll also explore commonly used libraries in JavaScript. In the culminating project, you’ll apply your skills by developing a classic Rock Paper Scissors game where one player is the computer.
After completing the course, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of JavaScript, enabling you to transition smoothly from Python while building robust, real-world applications.
