JavaScript

Javascript Path?

With the amount of Javascript classes available, I think it would be a great idea to organize a few of these classes into a Javascript course.

It could start with the basics such as Into to Programming and Into to Javascript and move into more advanced topics like Angular and Node.js.

I'm certain this will be sorted out soon. :-) Bear in mind there are sister courses to come out that build on the JS Basics course, included JS Loops and Objects later this month so there's plenty of time to sort out a new curriculum for the Front End Deveolpment Track.

I think Javascript has outgrown being just a "Front End" language - especially with the addition of tools like Node/Express.js. Which is why I was suggesting a separate JS Track. Looking forward to seeing what all of the great JS classes can develop into!

Maybe then there could be a track for exploring Front End Frameworks of which JS encompasses only some.

Remember the Front End track does focus on JS but there's more to Font End development than learning JS. But I do like the idea of a curriculum that starts with the basics of JS and then gets more advanced.

I still need to finish the Angular Course. It's the only course I've taken on Treehouse so far that's really scared me off LOL :)
