Learn how to work with Javascript to build interactivity into your websites. No previous Javascript knowledge necessary!
Javascript is one of the most-used web languages in the world but its learning curve is relatively steep. Aimed at people who design, this short course will teach you how to work with Javascript in a fun, creative way.
This course, perfect for beginners, is designed to get you up to speed with how Javascript works, how to think about event-driven code (e.g. on click, on scroll, on movement) and generally how to make design effects you'll want to use in your own projects.
You don't need to be a designer to join the course – all we require is a little knowledge of HTML and CSS.
What you'll learn
Learn how modern Javascript (ES6+) works, from variables and strings to arrays and objects
How to work with browser interactions such as clicks, hovers, mouse movements and scroll events
Work with smooth animations, transitions and delays to make your design work next-level good
Add in subtle (or not-so-subtle, it's up to you!) parallax effects to your design work
Context is everything – make design changes, on the fly, as you scroll up and down the page
Best of all... you'll learn how to be a better, more confident digital designer
WHAT YOU'LL GET
Real world projects – Projects and code that you can alter and remix to add to your own sites and portfolio
Access the community – Join our Slack and connect with thousands of SuperHi students and alumni
Continued help – Help from our expert teachers and educators with years of experience in the industry
Resources – Resources to get you started and going post-course
8+ hours of video lessons – Practical, go-at-your-own pace learning
