I have created this repo to serve as a comprehensive guide to JavaScript concepts and advanced programming techniques tailored for team learning and development. It was created to provide a structured and detailed approach to mastering JavaScript, enabling both foundational understanding and the ability to tackle complex, real-world applications.
The purpose of this document is to:
- Build a strong foundation in JavaScript for developers of all levels catering to needs of each person in our team.
- Introduce modern tools, techniques, and best practices used in contemporary software development.
- Provide in-depth lessons that bridge theoretical knowledge with practical coding applications.
- Serve as a reference guide for the ongoing development of our team project, the Food Truck App.
The document is organized into lessons, each focusing on specific JavaScript topics:
Lesson 01 - Intro to JS
An introduction to JavaScript, covering its history, purpose, and basic structure.
Lesson 02 - Intro to Functions, Arrays, Objects
