Introduction to JavaScript - Making Websites Interactive
Hey there, fellow learners! Today, we’re stepping into the JavaScript!, where websites go from static to interactive in a snap. Am really excited about how far we have come.✨
A quick one!
If you’re new I recommend you checkout all previous articles on HTML and CSS, before you continue this one.. Now let’s move on.
What’s JavaScript, Anyway?
JavaScript is like the magician behind the curtain, adding life to your websites. It lets you create buttons that change color when clicked, pop-up boxes with helpful tips, and more!
Hello, Interactivity!
When you're coding with JavaScript, it's all about giving your site a voice. Imagine making a button that responds with a "Hello!" when someone clicks it. That's just the beginning of what JavaScript can do!
Variables - Your Website’s Memory
Variables are like boxes that hold important stuff. For example, you could have a box called "name" that holds the value "Sarah." JavaScript lets you use these boxes to remember and work with information.
If-Else Magic - Making Choices
Imagine you're coding a game and want the website to react differently based on a player's score. That's where "if" and "else" come in. If the score is high, the site might say "You're a winner!" If not, it could say "Keep trying!"
Loop-de-Loop - Doing Things Over and Over
Loops are like a friendly robot doing a task repeatedly. Imagine creating a loop to count from 1 to 10 and print each number on the screen. It's like magic!
Functions -
Functions are like your trusty helpers. They follow your orders! You can tell a function to do something, like "add these two numbers." Whenever you need that task done, you just call the function.
