Course Description

*** Learn real life JavaScript to help you get a job as a front end developer! ***
"[E]ven not being an English native, it is very easy to understand and I don't feel lost in what he's doing and explaining. I recommend." Marlon K.
Interested in learning the #1 programming language in the world?
Are you sick and tired of unhelpful articles, YouTube videos that don't teach you anything new and can't find a course that ACTUALLY teaches you JavaScript?
Or do you struggle with applying JavaScript to real world projects?
If you answered YES to any of those then this course is FOR YOU.
So what's in this course?
This is a complete rewrite of the original JavaScript course I created years ago and goes beyond what all other JavaScript courses on Udemy are willing to teach you.
I will take you from JavaScript novice to JavaScript ninja. You will learn how to write JavaScript, and you'll gain transferable skills that you can take to PHP, Node.js, Python and many more programming languages... all of this with one purpose: to give you real-world useful programming skills to help you get a job as a developer!
Join me as I go through programming fundamentals and how they're applied in JavaScript. I explain everything along the way (and in great detail), PLUS you get to practise what you've learned in 3 projects!
Here you will learn more than "how" JavaScript works, but you'll also learn the "why" it works. Additionally, you'll learn about the softer side of being a developer, such as dealing with imposter syndrome.
To achieve the goal of becoming a front end web developer, we'll go through the theory with real world practice and projects, followed by a final exam. Becoming a full developer means writing and knowing JavaScript, inside and out. That's what's going to happen in this course!
This course isn't just about writing code. It's about becoming a real world developer. And I share my secrets of success in this industry. Between writing code, the code examples, 3 projects, a final exam, and learning about the soft skills you'll be completely prepared to apply for a front end web development job.
And if that's not enough, I share 5 life hacks for earning a living as a junior JavaScript developer that you can apply throughout your entire career. (you DON'T need to wait a year before getting a job!).
By the end of this course, you'll be a a confident JavaScript developer because you'll be able to write, read, debug and fully understand JavaScript: the most common and popular programming language in the world.
Here is exactly what you'll learn in this course:
JavaScript and programming fundamentals such as variables, comparisons, programming logic, data types, if/else statemenets, functions, objects, arrays, try/catch statements, classes and more.
Everything you need to know to get a job as a front end web developer.
What you should learn after this course and why you might not want to listen to other developers when they give you "certain advice" (hint: there's a lot of bad advice in Facebook groups)
How to make your webpages interactive using JavaScript.
More advanced JavaScript topics such as closures, hoisting, inheritance, self-invoking functions and anonymous functions.
Introduction to ES6 with arrow pointers, const, let and proper classes.
How to earn a respectable living WHILE you learn to code. People say it takes a year or two of being broke before you can pay your bills: they're absolutely WRONG.
Developers often face problems such as imposter syndrome. You'll learn how to deal with that.
...
This course isn't for everybody but this course is a perfect fit for you if...
You want to learn JavaScript.
You want to become a web developer by writing JavaScript.
You want to change careers.
You want to learning programming concepts that work for Python, Java, PHP or Node.js.
Now it's your turn to decide if this course is for you. This is what you get:
Lifetime access to my HD videos. No monthly subscriptions.
Learn JavaScript at your own pace.
Downloadable code examples.
Practice coding with 3 projects!
A final exam to test your memory.
A certificate of completion, stamped by Udemy!
Access on mobile, TV, tablet or computer!
This is a HUGE offering and I've built this course from the ground up after listening to hundreds of developers talk about what they want to learn.

This is a great course and Kalob is a great teacher. He explains the difficult stuff like child's play. Awesome.
In this course you will learn solid basic concepts of JS; but not only that, you will also get useful gold worth advises for your life as a developer.
Really thanks Kalob.

This course has been the best I have ever tried. Step-by-step, really detailed, makes you understand JS components. If you speak English, just take it! :)

The lectures do a great job explaining the material.

Great job so far, really breaks down JS. Looking forward to learning about OOP.

Great for beginners and as a refresher if you've got some experience.

I've completed a third of the course and it's very good. Pretty in-depth . The exercises are pretty helpful in understanding how the code works

Gaining understanding of fundamental concepts of Javascript - starting to understand code rather than just write / copy and paste it.

O curso é muito esclarecedor sobre Javascript e eu como um dev há um certo tempo pude preencher as lacunas que faltavam para meu entendimento sobre a linguagem.

Kalob is a great instructor. For me, this course was too basic, but I wanted to repeat some things to see what I knew already, perhaps to boost my self confidence. I would recommend this course for beginners.

I came into this class with some coding background but no JS experience. The lectures on querySelector and ES6 were particularly useful. Kalob is a really good presenter and instructor and I liked his direct approach and since of humor. This is a really good class for anyone learning JS or brushing up on existing JS skills. Thanks Kalob!

blown mind!
in this ocean of path options and learning curves, you helped me find a direction!

I am a salesforce developer and client side scripting has always been a nightmare due to a perceived lack of IDE, intelli-sense and line by line debugging. This course helped alleviate some of those fears and get some more insight into plain old javascript.
I was hoping to learn about prototyping and calls using XMLHttpRequest but those are more advanced concepts I'd glean from elsewhere.
Thanks a lot for the motivation Kalob!
