Reading material for the second lecture:

In week two we will discuss the following topics:
• Intro JavaScript (What is it, where can you use it for)
• Variables [var, let, const]
• Basic Data types [Strings, Numbers, Arrays, Booleans]
• Operators
• Naming conventions

How to get started

  1. Download and install the LTS version of NodeJS - https://nodejs.org/en/download/ To test that it was installed and running properly, go to your terminal and run the command: node -v You should get the node version printed on your terminal, for example, v8.9.1
  2. Although you are free to make you own choice of text/code editor to use during class and homework, we have good experiences with Microsoft's free VSCode editor, which is supported on Windows, Mac and Linux. Please refer to our VSCode Tips for more information.

Here are resources that we like you to read as a preparation for the coming lecture:
