Developing web applications with HTML, JavaScript and JQuery

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a standard language designed for creating pages and sites for the World Wide Web. Although today many simple web sites are created using a graphical productivity tool such as Adobe Dreamweaver, a sound knowledge of the syntax and semantics of HTML remains a requirement for building more sophisticated sites, such as those using scripting languages (such as JavaScript, PHP, or Perl) or using HTML5.

JavaScript is a simple object-oriented programming language that interacts with HTML pages. This makes it possible to develop webpages which are more interactive and dynamic than with HTML alone.

The jQuery framework, which is an extension of JavaScript, is one of the most popular tools that will considerably simplify writing and maintaining web applications. Different (and older) versions of the most common browsers are supported by default, and typical tasks like DOM interaction, form handling and animations are greatly simplified, allowing the developer to focus more on ideas, and less on writing complex code.

At course completion the participant will be able to create a website by combining HTML, CSS (Cascading Stylesheets), JavaScript and jQuery.

Note: if you want to master HTML5/JavaScript along with AngularJS, you can choose the alternate course Developing web applications with HTML, JavaScript and Angular.
