how to learn coding for the web with javascript

  • mozilla MDN guide: go through the modules (it's all in the sidebar) and the exercises
  • you can highlight and take notes with liner 
  • to do the exercises, 
    • you need to know: 
      • html, css and javascript -- you can look for for other modules on MDN
      • how relative file folder urls work - for working with img src
      • how to use the developer console function console.log()
    • usually the exercise folder contains: .js file, .css file, .html file and and image folder
    • you need these programs
      • to view output: 
        • a browser (i like google chrome), 
          • your html file opens in your browser
        • pressing f12 gives you the console, and the page source
        • you can you console.log() to test your code
        • you can view page source to see your html code
        • code editor for html, css, js
    • .html, .css, .js files: open in a code editor like VS. 
    • i also recommend the VS plugins 
      • ES6 - es6 refers to the latest version of javascript 
        • auto suggest/autocomplete javascript code
        • color codes code
        • mouseover reveals references' properties
      •  brackets - colorises brackets for nested code
    • your js, css, and html files are linked
      • so ctrl+s your js/css code and f5 your page to view changes
    • use console.log() to test code and trace your errors
javascript manipulates the actions in your html page/file. it can create, change, make it interactive
css styles your html page/file.
