OnlineCourse Details
This two-day Advanced JavaScript training course will provide you with a deep understanding of JavaScript. JavaScript is a core programming language for web technology that can be used to modify both HTML and CSS. It is frequently abbreviated to just JS. JavaScript is used for processes that are used in the user interfaces of most web browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox. It is the most preferred client-side scripting language today, due to its ability to make the browser do its work.
In this course, you will learn how to write JavaScript in a professional environment using the new JavaScript syntax in ES6, leverage JavaScript’s asynchronous nature using callbacks and promises, and gain an understanding of how to set up test suites and test your code. You will be introduced to JavaScript’s functional programming style and you will apply everything learned to build a simple application in various JavaScript frameworks and libraries for backend, frontend, and mobile developments.
Objectives
This is a fast-paced, practical course, aimed at developers using JavaScript. As you progress, you’ll find helpful tips and tricks, as well as useful self-assessment material, exercises, and activities to help you benchmark your progress and reinforce what you’ve learned. The activities have been devised to simulate real-world conditions in order to equip you with the necessary skills to accelerate software deployment while still maintaining security, portability, and affordability.
