Hello! My name is Jesse. I was born in Michigan, but I've been living in Central Florida the past 10 years. I've been programming since I was 12. Beginning with QBasic in school, IRC Scripting at home, and HTML in Netscape Navigator on weekends. In those days I had to "View Source" to figure out how to do anything! I...
This is a good intro to Javascript. It didn't make me so fluent in JS that I could "dream" in it, but it did cover the basic concepts to get me started.
Its a good course to start. No deep dives or anything. Just good examples.
I thoroughly enjoyed this course and found the content really stuck in my head. I would say though that it isn't for complete beginners as I think it will need some understanding of programming general principles before attempting it. Over though an excellent course and very enjoyable. Cheers Jesse
Instructor starts out decently explaining things. By the end of section 2 you're Googling everything because the methods/elements/bologna are used without thorough explanation as to what they do and why we want to use them.
The instructor ends lecture 7 by saying it's 'tricky' and doesn't bother explaining. (watch lecture 7, from about 5:40 to the end of the video and you'll see what I mean)
As for the positive aspects, I did learn many things.
If things were explained more thoroughly it would EASILY be a 5 star course.
Un curso básico que tiene varias cosas avanzadas, jquery, json, underscore, genial el curso
The lecture organization and content are good. I also like how each lecture builds from the previous. However, it was frustrating to experience the presenter's attempt to demonstrate a concept that failed and the constant correction of coding errors.
The presenter is obviously very good at coding/scripting; but a little extra time planning out each lecture would avoid the appearance of an ad-hoc "brown-bag" overview.
Excellent introduction for beginners!

I would recommend this to someone learning JavaScript- even today. It was a good intro to JavaScript, jQuery, and underscore.
