Great course, great instructor. I thought it would be too basic, but it's a really good course. I'm stoked to take the rest of the courses in this specialization.

This course introduces the programming language JavaScript and shows the websites that include the type of interactions students will eventually be able to develop. Learners will understand the importance of how JavaScript was developed and why such history impacts the way JavaScript is currently written and in future releases. Learners will write their first scripts, have their HTML and CSS skills assessed, create variables and arrays and assign values to them. If student’s skills are lacking, resources and recommendations are provided to improve these skills. There is ample opportunity for students to practice these first, core skills.

Very useful course for anyone interested in JavaScript, with lots of practice and real-world use of JavaScript.

I struggled trying to learn JS on multiple platforms and couldn't understand the language nor its logic.This course saved the day !Easy to follow, good pace, basics are covered.THANK YOU !

Great course that covers the basics of JavaScript and the projects we do along the way really helped in learning and understanding the topics. The projects were simple and easy to follow.

The professor really knows his stuff and knows how to teach it too. It is the best online Javascript course (or book) I have found so far, and I have tried a number already. I highly recommend it.

Great starting point for beginners who've never done Javascript before. However, some prior HTML and CSS knowledge is needed.

it's all good until the week number 4 on the last project. A bunch of new concepts were thrown in and i didn't know what was going on

One of the best JS courses, I have seen so far. The content is also uptodate. However, anyone who wants to take this course should have a strong basic of HTML and CSS.

An excellent introduction to Java Script. What I enjoyed most is that very early on in the class were actually applying JS real applications.

this professor is amazing. He explains everything coherently and approaches everything calmly. His pacing is perfect to actually retain new information so that you can keep building it.

Great course! Perfect for someone with no programming experience who finds other beginner JS courses move too quickly for true beginners. People with more experience might find the pace slow, but I really appreciated the teacher taking the time to move very clearly through all the basics. The course is supplemented with some exercises to practice and some points in the video where he asks you to pause and try to solve it yourself before continuing. I found these manageable and very useful for learning.
My only complaint is that the sound quality is not great, but I noticed that in the preview video too, so I knew what to expect.

Overall the information was good but the quizes at the end of the sections were way to open ended and confusing.
I really appreciate how Professor Mead goes through the processes. He shows you the how and why of script and takes the time to show you what happens if you leave things out for debugging.
Very nicely organized course with engaging empathetic teacher.
Some concept not tell clearly, and lack of details or start too immediately.
Great Overview especially for beginners. I knew a couple programing languages and I still learned something new. I would reccommend watching it on double speed if you already know the basics of programming. I would also reccomend doing the Challenges.
One thing I had a problem with is that the creator needs to check their quiz questions. Some of them are not very well worded and often cause confusion in what they are asking. One question said "this is spelled wrong" when in reality they meant the variable's Case was off. There are a lot of little confusing bits and retaking a quiz because you misunderstood the wording of an easy question is frustrating.
This course was awsome! I've taken other JS courses in the past and they were okay compared to this course. They didnt go in as depth into each concept as this course did. They were faster paced, so I struggled to keep and retain much information. And, they either did not do a capstone project at the end, or if they did, it was a relatively useless project and didn't provide the same level of guidance as this course did. I plan on taking the other courses in this specialization and hope that they are just like this one!
Great content, easy to follow. Some background knowledge of HTML &CSS would be helpful, without it concepts might be a little confusing but otherwise, following through and practicing the examples give clarity.
Get to learn a lot of things. Great course indeed.
Good, but needed to be a little more hands on with projects.
it's pretty good but the teacher was a bit too slow for me... watched it at 1.5x speed
Like his microphone, the course is not good.
No introduction, you should have knowledge already before you get this course!!! it is not for beginners.
Great course that covers the basics of JavaScript and the projects we do along the way really helped in learning and understanding the topics. The projects were simple and easy to follow.
Very well explained. The teacher always goes step by step. Projects are well structured and so the challenges. This is my first approach to Javascript, and I really liked it!
Great course, great instructor. I thought it would be too basic, but it's a really good course. I'm stoked to take the rest of the courses in this specialization.
High quality course. Highly recommend. The instructor clerkly knows what he's doing and be able to demonstrate his knowledge with pace.
A very informative, very step-by-step course that allows anyone to develop a good understanding of how Javascript works.
