[Noisebridge WebDev] Front-end Web Development, Monday 8pm: jQuery

[Jeffrey Carl Faden]

We'll introduce jQuery, a JavaScript library that makes web programming a
whole lot easier. jQuery is the most popular of many libraries that allow
us to interact with the document easily, while also providing us with a few
tools that are missing from the base language.

To learn what jQuery can do, we'll add some scripting to this sample web
app: http://jeffreyatw.com/static/frontend/series6/class9/assets.zip

Noisebridge is back open for classes! This class will be taught at
Noisebridge.

--- The usual details follow ---

Learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript - and put them to good use! This weekly
lecture series, taught by Jeffrey Carl Faden, is aimed at complete
beginners who are interested in making websites, as well as seasoned
professionals looking to brush up on the latest and greatest.

Front-end web development is all about making code that runs in the browser
(versus code that runs on the server). There isn't a big focus on web
design (creating wireframes and mockups), but we do cover best practices
for turning these designs into beautiful code.

The class starts on Monday at 8pm, and goes until 10pm! Plan to arrive
EARLY, as the class has been filling up very fast. We will have a recap of
last week's material starting at 7:30pm. If you're either new, couldn't
make last week's class or you simply need a refresher, come early and we'll
go through a simple tutorial.

This class does go in a series, but the series can last up to half a year.
Don't let it discourage you if you're starting from the middle - attend
recaps and labs and you should be able to catch up!

This class and the space in which it's taught are entirely free to attend.
Please bring a laptop. Read all of the details here:
