Course Description

APIs are an extremely powerful way to access content and interact with severs across the internet. Within this course we show you how to use simple JavaScript and connect to popular web 2.0 APIs like Twitter, Google Maps, and Facebook. We show you how AJAX works and how to use JSON to transfer and output data onto your webpage.

We use HTML and CSS to setup the webpage, and JavaScript to pull data onto the page.

AJAX and how to connect and output file information into HTML using JavaScript.

JSON - as a data source, how to check JSON and parse it using JavaScript.

Google Maps - is done using JavaScript, we show you how to add interactive maps, set markers and more. Basic JavaScript knowledge is used but not required.

Twitter Developer API - We introduce you to the Twitter Developer console, how to create applications and widgets. We show several ways to place Twitter data on your site, including Twitter Widgets, JavaScript only format for search, timelines and user info. Twitter REST API, to pull user feed, search twitter for hashtags, post tweets and more. PHP is used in this lecture but PHP knowledge is not necessary, the source code can be copied and updated with your own keys to access the API. If you want to learn how to access Twitter and create applications that interact with Twitter this course will teach you how.

Facebook - Using the JavaScript SDK, we show you how to login, access the Facebook API and pull back data. Authorizing your applications with Facebook authorization.

All the source code is included, step by step learning and a 30 day money back guarantee.

Thanks for course, but there should be lots of improvement for this: 1. API that used in this course is outdated 2. Need more detail for each social media API example so that we can understand more about that. 3. Lazy pdf documentation (just adding materials like trash without adding detail architecture and more explanation)

By Anastasia Gromontova on 5/23/2018

IMHO Computer should be a bit faster, cause if one pays for the course he shouldn’t spend time on waiting instructor’s computer loading. Reducing this time can make course up to 20% faster. Also want to highlight, that if one makes a course, he should test cases he want to show it every lecture (moreover they take a few minutes), so there will be less mistakes etc

Clean and Clear. Advancing the knowledge step by step.

my favorite teacher always high resolution videos clear and good explained content & up to date!

By Jeremy Bell on 9/14/2017

The course is very rough around the edges. The instructor makes a lot of mistakes that should have been redone or edited out, but instead it seems like the instructor did a first pass on the videos and left it. The course is more geared towards "hacking" a few API's by using libraries and less on API's in theory. You're often just pointed to a github library and then the lesson ends.

By Lee Harrington on 8/28/2017

The course is very basic and while great for specifically creating google maps or facebook logins, it is not real complete for trying to learn how to connect to a random company's API.

By Matthew Valladarez on 4/23/2017

Straight to the point and have not received errors in output. Google Maps API was a little too simplified would've enjoyed some added depth.

By Kirk Vander Kuy on 9/25/2016

Everything you need to know to get started using JSON data from the web, or the Google Maps, Twitter and Facebook APIs on your web pages. Easy to understand and follow along. I highly recommend this course.

By Alaa Alhalabi on 4/15/2016

Really Helpful course and straight to the point! an Instagram addition would be nice! Thank you Laurence!

By Hassan Baabdullah on 3/29/2016

The course is direct, practical and comprehensive. The only disadvantage is that the instructor assumes that the trainee has experience in web programming.
