Overview of What this Training Is and Is Not

In this tutorial, I am going to cover the basics of what JavaScript is. I will give you a brief understanding of the purpose and reason behind the use of JavaScript. I will not be going into hardcore coding training. I might do that later down the road, but in this tutorial, you will learn what is JavaScript and what does it do. I will provide some brief example of JavaScript code, but only for purposes of understanding the overview of it.

I do recommend before you begin this tutorial, that you can take a look at my basic HTML tutorial. It was my first WA tutorial I designed in July 2015. This reason I recommend you first understand a little bit about HTML is because HTML tags create objects and JavaScript lets you manipulate those objects. For insatnce, you use the HTML <BODY> and </BODY> tags to create a webpage, or HTML document. After that document is created in HTML, you can interact with it by using JavaScript. Therefore, it is recommended you first understand HTML and how it works.

Thanks but I think I'll save this. I'm just not ready for it yet. I'm too new and am trying to cram too many other bits of information in my brain.
