Which is newest, Intro to jQuery or jQuery Basics?
Intro to jQuery is in the front end tech degree, but jquery basics is in the front end track. Why is this and which is most current? The Intro to jQuery course is still using var and no arrow functions - so no ES6.

10,755 PointsIntroduction to jQuery is the newest. I would recommend doing this course first than moving to jQuery basics. jQuery basics is more in-depth.

If one of the courses includes ES6 syntax, that's a sure sign that it was recently revised. It may also be worth noting that jQuery Basics is a more extensive course and over twice the size of Introduction to jQuery.

Treehouse Project ReviewerI haven't done the other course yet so I have no idea whether or not it uses ES6 syntax - which is partly why I am asking.
Steven Parker
231,072 PointsOh, perhaps neither uses ES6 then. But as I said, they are quite different in length. The intro should not take very long (the estimate is under 2 hours) to complete and might make a good "warm up" for the other course.
