This morning I was study Javascript with aa short Udemy course that was free.
I knew a little about js but I thought I should follow through on a free course or two before committing cash to anything in-depth.
This course pretty good, a lot of pausing as there were a bit that was too quickfire for me to see what was being written. Yes, there were resources that held all the source code but writing the code and making mistakes will always help in the learning. Plus the resource was always there as a backup.
Three mini apps were created in this course.
1. Limiting the characters that can be typed in a text box.
2. A box with scrolling text that can be stopped by a button click or mouseover. ( Plus a few other tweaks.
3. A set of boxes that you click on and a coloured box drops down a random distance( Plus, again, a few other tweaks.
I thought I should give a link to the courses I have enrolled in. Some paid, some free
My rule of thumb for anyone considering courses is to look at the rating, read the reviews. I tend to start with 4.5/5 and above to start with, then spend a bit more time assessing anything 4.0 - 4.4/5 if I am interested in the topic.
