I'm an experienced software engineer, and I'm pleasantly surprised how great this course is at removing the unnecessary parts to present what is needed to work as an engineer in an organization

Week 1 and Week 2 is the very foundation level of JavaScript and you can grind it within 1 or 2 days, for my case 1. When you get to Week 3 thing escalate from 20 to 100 within a week. I have dealt with OOP before in different Programming language and its painful, especially when you don't have experience with OOP. Week 4 and 5 is a foundation to more advance JavaScript usage. I will rate the intensity of process below from scale 1-10. Week 1: 1/10

Week 2: 3/10

Week 3 11/10

Week 4: 8/10

Week 5: 7/10

I was familiar with java programming before as we haad it in highschool . recently I also worked on projects involving javaascript but the very fact that there is always something you miss to learn even when you think you know it is proved to be very true by this course .A few fundamental concepts on objects and other bits and pieces neglected by me before was made crystal cleaaar to me as I learned about JS through this course. Kudos to team Metaaa for such an amazing learning experience.

I've been writing JS in one form or another since 2002, coming back to Web Development and getting this course as a refresher kind of surprised me how things have changed in the JS land. This course is designed so well and delivered in a practical way. I just wish some of those videos that only had voice-overs had a more serious voice and not an LA-blond kinda tone...

Whirl wind tour of JavaScript! Presents a lot of concepts and really whet my appetite to learn it more in depth. I like the fact that they continually pointed to outside materials for further study. That is programming - even though you know something, there is always a lot more to learn and finding the appropriate resources is a good part of the process.

There are a few errors - I know in week 4 I answered questions correctly, but they were marked as wrong answers, even though they were the right answers. It was 2 questions. Other than that, the overall course was informative and I enjoyed it greatly. Coursera has many incredible programs here, I am going to stick around. What an incredible tool.

This JavaScript course is very foundational and practical. It is a suitable course for beginners and also for those who wants to refresh their JavaScript knowledge. The videos are engaging with pop quiz . The programming assignments were very practical and challenging. Congratulation to the Meta Staff presenters. You all did a good job.

This is a wonderful course, made with soul. This is a wonderful story in simple words about complex topics. Huge thanks to the amazing creators and Meta Corporation. I am a refugee from Ukraine studying to find a job and this course has been a huge support for me and my family during a difficult time after russia's dastardly attack on Ukraine.

I think this is a great review and introduction to a lot of JavaScript topics. I was impressed by the in-browser tests that were set up, I think it provided an extra beneficial experience in allowing users to actually code. I did catch what I thought a typo or wrong answer in one of the quizzes, I still thought overall the course was great.

This course was great for me. I have some programming experience from years ago but very limited experience with JavaScript. The course introduces important concepts at the right level so you can do a deeper dive on the concepts you need to. The challenges in the Labs are challenging enough and the quality of the content is excellent.

Coursera is the platform where I finally ended the JavaScript. I have started JavaScript too many times but could not find the interactive way of learning that Coursera provided. Thanks a lot for this course and one thing I have noticed that is video content are less and additional reading are a lot which is not good in my opinion.

Fue un curso muy entretenido. Se abordan conceptos desde lo más básico y fundamental hasta funcionalidades más específicas y avanzadas de JavaScript. Los módulos finales requieren de unos pequeños ajustes, pero en general es una oportunidad para aprender muchísimo y avanzar en este campo profesional!

I learned many important things using the programming language of the web. The first part was a bit dense for me because it was very fundamental knowledge but covered in great detail; however, as I learned more about unit testing, DOM manipulation, and especially Node, I fell in love with the course.

I love the learning format: 1) video, 2) reading article, and 3) practice tests. It is a great value to have the text version of what the speaking is saying. I found it beneficial to read this text and take notes. My JavaScript knowledge increased after taking this course. Thank you Meta!

The course included all the basic must know. This is a friendly course for a new comer who want to start learning JavaScript, easy instruction, step by step assignment, recap section and so on. Recommended to others and wish meta can maintain the quality for the future courses.

Pros: Fast and basic, semi-superficial introduction to all sides of the language Give you the links to go deep as you want Teaching concepts via illustrations and beautiful analogies

Cons: Instructor is robot-like, no wonder he is working for Mark Zuckerburg

This was a good course. Though the last two weeks felt a bit rushed in terms of practice and the level of the assignments seemed to rise steeply suddenly which made it more time-consuming. Other than that it was a very detailed and well explained course!
