Friday, 14 January 2022

Subtitled "Learn JavaScript quickly by building fun, interactive, and dynamic web apps, games, and pages", this book demonstrates the capabilities of JavaScript for web application development by combining theoretical learning with code exercises and fun projects that you can challenge yourself with.

The book focuses on key programming concepts and Document Object Model manipulations that are used to solve common problems in professional web applications. These include data validation, manipulating the appearance of web pages, working with asynchronous and concurrent code.
