Does anyone know any courses for web javascript? like youtube courses and for web javascript, i mean writing js in script tags, using document and window, and intergrating backend with frontend no nodejs or stuff like that. Just javascript, being used in a script tag, being used to dynamically manipulate elements, the DOM, and such. Most tutorials I found was just, explaining how js works, i know how it works, I want to know how to do the communication between front-end and back-end.
[EDIT] I found one person, and while I would like it if you could tell me more courses, i will link his videos, Traversy Media did some videos on Javascript DOM, which basically does what I asked for, i made a playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDmZtFPxsV268gyN8XBTgXiVVRXtIRf2o
if for whatever reason the playlist goes down, just search for him. But I would like to hear about alternatives.
Honestly, if you’re having trouble finding stuff for vanilla JS, I’d recommend looking at jQuery. Not that you should USE jQuery, necessarily, but the library is basically a giant wrapper around all the native JS APIs, so the approach to building stuff is essentially the same: it all focuses on tracking and manipulation of DOM elements.
I do vanilla JS (actually TypeScript) dev at work, daily, and that was my big takeaway from spearheding our team’s migration from jQuery to vanilla TypeScript: I honestly don’t know what benefit jQuery provides, over vanilla, because all the most-common jQuery APIs that we were using have a 1:1 native equivalent.
We do also use 2 third-party libraries alongside vanilla, so I’l mention those: require.js and rx.js. Require you probably don’t need, with modern JS having bundling and module support built-in but we still use it for legacy reasons. But rx.js is a huge recommend, for me. Reactive programming is the IDEAL way to build GUIs, in my opinion.
