Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone can recommend any books or programs that go into depth about the concepts of JQuery . The model of the current course seems to be, build it and learn as you go. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a course/ books that explains concepts in detail, so at the end a person can build simple things from what they understand. I feel like i'm just following along but not really learning concepts that I could use to build other things on my own. I think I need more fundamental knowledge and when I have it , I feel like I could benefit more from the projects we have here. Any ideas?
