30 Days Coding in JavaScript
Programming is not an easy task, especially when you have to locate an error it becomes frustrating just to even learn. We hear experts talk about how hard it could be to find an error or debug without deleting major codes. Learning JavaScript for me has been difficult, it looks like there is just so much to learn and master at once. I have not been coding for a while and of course, I have forgotten almost everything I learned in a course I barely started. Looks like most programmers have this issue huh? Oh well, I have started a series on 30 days of JavaScript which could be in turn useful for other new programmers like me struggling to find their way around JavaScript. #30daysofJavaScript.
About JavaScript
JavaScript is known as a lightweight, object-oriented and scripting language that is used in webpages but can also run in a non-browser environment. It has grown in increasing popularity among developers and one can almost say there is no webpage without the use of JavaScript or a framework of it, that being said JavaScript is the king of web development.
JavaScript runs on the client-side of the web, which can be used to design / program how the web pages behave on the occurrence of an event such as a click, a stroll or even after the web page loads. Read more about JavaScript here.
Prerequisites
You should be familiar with HTML and CSS to be able to write in JavaScript. If you do not have prior knowledge you can start here.
Editor
The major editor that will be used here is playcode editor (be sure to sign in to edit and save your work).
Developer tools
This is an important feature when writing JavaScript especially when you're writing from your local editors such as VS Code or sublime text. All console messages are seen here, press Command+Option+J (Mac) or Control+Shift+J (Windows, Linux, Chrome OS) to jump straight into the Console panel.
Links
Below are the tutorial links that will be used in my day to day learning:
We have finally been able to wrap up the basic introduction to JavaScript. Join me through this. Hoping we have fun doing this.
