- Building apps with Vanilla JavaScript alone, without libraries or frameworks, can provide better load times and better overall performance without giving up modern features like data binding and animation. I'm Sasha Vodnik, a web developer, author, and educator. In this course, I'll invite you to think about removing libraries and frameworks using this metaphor as we convert an app that builds the same features and functionality with Vanilla JavaScript alone. We'll get familiar with modern JavaScript solutions like the fetch API for ajax requests. I'll show you how to implement Vanilla JavaScript approaches to common tasks like selecting elements. And we'll build out efficient solutions for common components of modern web apps, like updating the DOM. After you complete this course, you'll be able to rely on Vanilla JavaScript in your new projects, or to refactor existing apps. Let's dive in.
