Description
18 Hours of Video Instruction

Front-end Master Class video training is based on four video courses that cover all you need for a front-end development job.

With more than 300,000 online learners, instructor Shaun Wassell offers a modern, full-fledged introduction to JavaScript, React, Angular, and jQuery.

This master class includes the following courses: Learn JavaScript LiveLessons gives first-time JavaScript users what they need to become successful developers. Instructor Shaun Wassell offers a modern, full-fledged introduction to JavaScript. In particular, the viewer learns the modern syntax of JavaScript: ES6. Shaun delivers step-by-step guidance that will take the learner from the basic syntax and concepts of JavaScript, all the way through the more advanced concepts that are covered in technical interviews. JavaScript has become the common tongue of the software development world, making it possible for a single developer with a single programming language to build programs that only a few years ago would have required an entire department.

React, Angular, and Vue are great if you have several months to learn and integrate them! But in many use cases, simplicity wins, and that's where jQuery comes in. jQuery is a time-tested tool for making web pages interactive by providing a straightforward way to build huge, intricate web applications with millions of users and learn an entire front-end framework. In Learn jQuery Essentials LiveLessons the viewer learns how to create interactive, performant websites without a framework, such as how to query and manipulate web page content. Shaun shows you how jQuery can help you handle web page events such as clicks, typing, and more in an easy, intuitive way.

React is an extremely popular tool for creating websites, and it is sort of a halfway point between creating a site using a drag-and-drop editor, such as WordPress and Squarespace, and coding a site line by line by line, literally from scratch. React enables developers to create beautiful, performant, easily maintainable websites quickly. React is currently the most popular JavaScript framework on the market and is used by most companies. In fact, React currently has one of the largest gaps between the number of employers who want it and the number of developers who know it. In short, 33% of employers need React skills, but only 19% of developers said they know React. Learn React for Modern Web Applications provides you with a solid foundation in creating modern web applications using the latest version of React.

Learn Angular for Modern Web Applications covers the topics needed to effectively create and manage front-end codebases using Angular, currently one of the most popular front-end JavaScript frameworks. The approach is hands-on. You start with a basic boilerplate application, and throughout the course, add new functionality to your skill set. Angular has undergone some substantial changes over the past few years, and this course presents the latest features and best practices.
