JavaScript for the Job

JavaScript... that's pretty easy right. They may have hired you as a systems engineer for you c++ skills, but you're also expected to be proficient with JavaScript. You may have got the job with your UX skills, or you may be hot with css... but if you really want to be successful, you need to know JavaScript.

Hi, I'm Eve Porcello, and today's your lucky day, because we've put together a course to teach you the JavaScript that you need to know in order to get your job done. To be really successful later with React, Vue, or Svelte, you need to understand what is going on when you build and deploy your application. To debug code, you need to know where it is running on the stack, and what the difference is between JavaScript that runs in the browser, or JavaScript that runs on a server. To do anything, you need to know your way around NPM. You need to know how to how to install reusable libraries and execute NPM scripts.

That's why we're really excited about this course here. We're basing this curriculum on over a decade of teaching JavaScript to engineers at enterprise companies. Having these skills in place will make your work with React, GraphQL, or any JavaScript library more enjoyable... maybe even fun.

I want to show you what I've learned, so you can actually enjoy it while being successful at your job. Let's get into it.

Conclusion

Thank you for taking JavaScript for the Job. We'd love to hear what you thought about this course. You can provide us with some feedback using the link below.

Now that you have a foundation you may be wondering where to go from here. If you are a backend developer, or data scientist, you may want to consider diving deeper into Node JS. We have a very detailed Node JS learning path that is outlined here. You may also be interested in learning GraphQL, trust me GraphQL is great. If you have never heard of GraphQL we have a free course designed to introduce anyone to what it is. You can find that link here. And we have other GraphQL courses available here.

You you develop client applications on the front end, you may be interested in some of our React and React Native courses. You can find details about that here. You too may be interested in looking into how to build GraphQL clients with this course here.
