What you should know before watching this course

“

- Before beginning this course, there are some concepts that you should already be familiar with. First, you should already know how to use HTML and CSS since we'll be working with webpages. If you are not already familiar with these topics, you should check out HTML5 Essential Training, and CSS Essential Training, both available here on lynda.com. These titles will give you the foundation you need to be familiar with these concepts. You should also be familiar with writing and debugging JavaScript code. JQuery is a JavaScript library, so all the code that we will be writing in this course is, in fact, JavaScript code. If you need to brush up on your JavaScript skills, there are several great courses here on lynda.com that you should look into. First, have a look at JavaScript Essential Training. This will give you a solid introduction to the JavaScript language and important concepts such as functions, objects, and common data structures. Working with JavaScript often means having to work with JSON, which is a common way that data is represented and transferred around using JavaScript. You can learn more about JSON by watching JavaScript and JSON. And finally, take a look at XML Essential Training. XML is another very common way that information is exchanged among JavaScript applications. And knowing how to work with XML is pretty important in today's web application landscape.
