Introduction to JavaScript
Getting Started with JavaScript
- Overview of JavaScript and its importance
- Setting up the development environment (browser console, text editor)
- Writing your first JavaScript program: “Hello, World!”
- Basic syntax and structure
Practice Exercise:
- Create a simple program that prints “Hello, World!” to the console and manipulates the DOM to display it on a webpage.
Operators and Expressions
- Arithmetic operators
- Comparison operators
- Logical operators
- Assignment operators
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a calculator that performs basic arithmetic operations and displays the results.
Variables, Data Types, and Operators
Understanding Variables and Data Types
- Variables and constants (var, let, const).
- Data types (string, number, boolean, null, undefined, object)
- Type conversion and coercion.
Practice Exercise:
- Create a program that uses different data types and performs type conversion.
Operators and Expressions
- Arithmetic operators
- Comparison operators
- Logical operators
- Assignment operators
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a calculator that performs basic arithmetic operations and displays the results.
Control Structures
Loops
- for loop
- while loop
- do-while loop
- break and continue statements
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100 and replaces multiples of 3 with “Fizz”, multiples of 5 with “Buzz”, and multiples of both with “FizzBuzz”.
Conditional Statements
- if, else if, and else statements
- Switch-case statements
- Ternary operator
Practice Exercise:
- Create a program that takes user input and displays a message based on the input value.
Functions and Scope
Functions
- Function declaration and expression
- Parameters and return values
- Arrow functions
Practice Exercise:
- Refactor previous exercises to use functions for different tasks (e.g., input handling, calculations).
Scope and Closures
- Understanding scope (global, local)
- Function scope vs. block scope
- Introduction to closures
Practice Exercise:
- Create a program that demonstrates the concept of scope and closures with nested functions.
Objects and Arrays
Working with Objects
- Creating and modifying objects
- Accessing and updating properties
- Methods and this keyword
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a simple address book application that uses objects to store contact information.
Arrays
- Creating and modifying arrays
- Array methods (push, pop, shift, unshift, map, filter, reduce)
Practice Exercise:
- Create a program that manipulates an array of numbers to calculate the sum, average, and find the maximum and minimum values.
DOM Manipulation and Events
Introduction to the DOM
- Understanding the Document Object Model (DOM)
- Selecting elements (querySelector, getElementById)
- Modifying elements (textContent, innerHTML, style)
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a program that dynamically updates the content and style of a webpage based on user interactions.
Handling Events
- Event listeners (click, change, submit)
- Event object and properties
- Event delegation
Practice Exercise:
- Create an interactive to-do list application that allows users to add, remove, and mark tasks as completed.
Asynchronous JavaScript
Asynchronous Programming
- Introduction to asynchronous programming
- Callbacks, Promises, and async/await
- Error handling in asynchronous code
Practice Exercise:
- Develop a program that fetches data from an external API and displays it on a webpage.
Practice Project: Interactive Web Application
Throughout the course, participants will work on a practice project that incorporates all the concepts learned. The project will involve developing an interactive web application, such as a personal blog or a simple game, that includes:
- Module 1-2: Setting up the basic structure and variables for the application.
- Module 3-4: Implementing control structures and functions to handle user interactions.
- Module 5-6: Using objects and arrays to manage data and dynamically update the DOM.
- Module 7: Integrating asynchronous features to fetch and display data from an API.
By the end of this course, participants will have a solid understanding of JavaScript fundamentals and hands-on experience with developing interactive web applications. They’ll be well-equipped to tackle more advanced programming challenges.
