Korshub's take

JavaScript fundamentals through a real project

This course is split into two parts: a first half covering core JavaScript and programming concepts, and a second, project-based half where you build a responsive dating app (client-side only) to put those concepts into practice. Updated in June 2015 with live coding exercises.

What you'll learn

Variables, strings, and functions
Working with arrays, objects, and JSON
Conditional statements and loops
Accessing the DOM and handling events and user interaction

Who it's for

Aimed at beginners who want the fastest path to a working understanding of JavaScript, whether the end goal is websites, HTML5 games and apps, or server-side development.

The course is taught by Pablo Farias Navarro, founder of ZENVA, who has built dozens of web applications and JavaScript games. The project-based second half is the standout: rather than stopping at syntax, it walks through applying the fundamentals to a real, functioning app.
