Javascript

Become a Versatile Developer

Start a career in web development with JavaScript. For nine years running, JavaScript has been ranked the number one most used programming language. Once you learn how to use JavaScript and its tools, you’ll be able to create games, animated 2D and 3D graphics, comprehensive database-driven apps, and much more.

Learn In-Demand Skills

JavaScript is relatively compact, yet flexible. Developers have written a variety of tools on top of the core JavaScript language, unlocking a vast amount of functionality with minimum effort. These include:

• Browser Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) built into web browsers, providing functionality such as dynamically creating HTML and setting CSS, collecting and manipulating a video stream from a user’s webcam, or generating 3D graphics and audio samples.
• Third-party APIs allow developers to incorporate functionality in websites from other content providers, such as Twitter or Facebook.
• Third-party frameworks and libraries which you can apply to HTML to accelerate the work of building sites and applications.
