Pardon me if that's been already asked as I couldn't find relevant answers. So as the title says, I've decided to learn JavaScript has I've a pretty good grip on HTML/CSS. But the thing is, I couldn't any good resources to get started with. Could you guys share your experiences on how did you start learning JavaScript? I've my goals that I'll learn the basic JavaScript usage, syntax etc and then move on to a JS library like JQuery and stuff like that. I've already used other people's script on my websites and I've to come to a point now that I what to learn it myself. What sources do you guys recommend? I prefer learning by watching screen casts and videos though.
I will recommend you to learn JQuery from the start because you will end up sooner or later at this wonderful library. You will learn javascript syntax along JQuery.
You can learn javascript basic from w3schools and then go for jquery. Its easy to learn. Best of luck.
Hy, Look on the net for "JavaScript video tutorials", also check JavaScript Course and other sites you'll find.
Do NOT do this. You will learn jQuery and then become dependent on it and use it like a crutch. Learn javascript as it stands. Then and only then learn jQuery if you feel you need it. Many people don't need it and never use it.
right, you need to start with javascript, then you can learn any framework you want, like jquery or something else here is a nice tutorial for beginners: http://javascript.about.com/od/learnjavascript/Learn_to_Program_with_Javascript.htm cheers mate
you can learn javascript very easy because it is scripting language but not like java writting tough codes it is easy if you know HTML and DHTML and you can have many tutorials from Lynda.com and W3school.com
Android apps are written in java, not javascript. I agree with some of the users above me: DO NOT learn jquery first, you will not understand how javascript really works if you do so.
i suggest w3school.com a best place to start learning as they privde online editor to check your coding as well.
