This course is about learning how to code in the age of AI. It balances the conceptual clarity beginner coders need with the ability of AI to turn their pure JavaScript code into a professional web app. It does this with a very AI-enabled, hands-on, and project-based approach. You’ll start with simple print statements and variables, then progress through decisions, loops, and data structures: anchored by a real-world project like a receipt generator, a smart watch step tracker, or a meal planner. You’ll practice prompting AI to generate, refine, and debug code, building syntax knowledge and modern coding workflows. The course culminates in a capstone “Budget Tracker” app where you’ll gather requirements from a client, implement features, add error handling, and even convert the app into a professionally written, graphical interface-based web application. With guided lessons, interactive AI support, and six complete projects, you’ll finish with practical skills and a portfolio to showcase to the tech world.
