What is JavaScript?

JavaScript is a programming language that was created in 1995 by Brendan Eich. The language was initially intended to be a straightforward scripting language that could speed up website input validation. In recent years, JavaScript has exploded in popularity and is used for much more. This programming language is most commonly used for web, application, and browser-based game development. It is a foundational skill for anyone who wants to pursue a career in one of those fields.

What Can You Do with JavaScript Skills?

Imagine visiting a website but being unable to interact with anything. Nothing moves or changes color when you hover over it, and as you scroll through the page, everything is just a static image or text. Sounds pretty dull, doesn't it? 

Now, think about a website you’ve recently visited. It’s likely that as you scrolled through the page, graphics popped into view with a flourish. You may have noticed an image carousel that automatically shifts from photo to photo or a button that changes color when you hover over it.

All of this is made possible with JavaScript, which adds interactive elements to websites that would otherwise be entirely static. While HTML and CSS, two languages fundamental to web design, are static by design, JavaScript makes websites more responsive and engaging to viewers.

Why Learn JavaScript

For anyone considering a new career in web development, becoming a JavaScript Developer provides work for an in-demand profession. Noble Desktop has training for JavaScript inside its Midtown Manhattan classrooms that could put veterans with skills in programming languages on the path to their new careers.

JavaScript is one of the three coding languages Web Developers must learn alongside HTML and CSS. JavaScript is a front end programming language that facilitates interactivity for websites with a wide-ranging library and adaptable frameworks, which is why it is the most popular programming language. JavaScript is a programming language, whereas HTML and CSS are not. Noble Desktop’s training in JavaScript would be learning about its libraries and frameworks, including React, Vue, jQuery, and Node.js. For example, jQuery is used by companies like Google, WordPress, Facebook, and IBM, among many others, to make websites and apps interactive when browsing the internet.

Anyone looking to become a JavaScript Developer must also learn the skills needed by getting the JavaScript Developer Certificate available in New York City to help participants reach their career goals.

Why Choose a Skills Bootcamp?

Noble Desktop has created the “Classes Near Me” tool to help individuals find in-person JavaScript courses and bootcamps in New York City. Participants can choose among introductory courses, bootcamps, or certificate programs. Students can decide which classes best suit their ambitions with these training options.

Bootcamps offer training in a specific discipline within a more compact timeframe than pursuing a traditional four-year college degree in the same major. However, people nervous about training to find a new career can enroll in short courses that can acclimate them to the rigors of immersive programs like bootcamps that can last anywhere from weeks to several months. Noble Desktop has a variety of live online JavaScript courses that can put students on the road to new careers. These shorter courses help individuals get conditioned for taking on the challenge of bootcamps and certificate programs.

Bootcamp training includes attending Noble Desktop’s JavaScript Programming Bootcamp, which provides immersive training in JavaScript programming for learning how to create interactive websites and apps from lessons on variables, functions, data types, and asynchronous JavaScript. The main goal of the course is to help students establish fundamental skills with JavaScript to create web pages and apps.

Veterans may enroll in certificate programs that are usually completion-based that train students in specific skills or prepare them for new careers. To be clear, certificate programs are not the same as certifications, which certify that a person is skilled in a specific discipline for employment. However, a certificate program can provide a person with the skills needed to attempt and pass a certification exam. Noble Desktop offers the JavaScript Development Certificate program that trains new beginners with basic coding knowledge and the skills to become Web Developers through learning JavaScript.

In particular, this course teaches about object-oriented programming, variables, functions, and data types, among many other topics. By the end of the class, students will know how to build web applications using JavaScript and be familiar with its libraries and frameworks. Before enrolling in this class, you should be comfortable coding with HTML and CSS. 

Noble Desktop also offers a JavaScript Development Certificate, which takes JavaScript learning further. In this course, students practice building web applications with JavaScript and learn how to use React, Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB to expand the versatility of this programming language.
