Microsoft launches free “Beginner’s Series to: JavaScript” course

Following the launch of a free online tutorial video for Python in September last year, Microsoft announced the launch of a new free online tutorial video for JavaScript.

According to reports, the JavaScript video series for beginners contains a total of 51 parts, adopting a structure similar to the Python teaching video series consisting of 44 parts, and provides students with language and AI tools that can be used in the Azure cloud course.

This series of videos delve into JavaScript frameworks such as Google’s Angular and software development kits (SDKs) using JavaScript. It also includes how to use Microsoft Visual Studio Code to set up the developer environment and install Node.js as the JavaScript runtime.

Microsoft also introduced programmers to a large number of packages and software libraries available on npm in this course. At the end of this teaching course, students will be guided to complete their own “Hello World” application building process.

On the other hand, Microsoft also aims to educate developers through this course to understand the content of Azure artificial intelligence services, such as Azure Cognitive Services and Azure Bot Framework. They have a JavaScript implementation, allowing developers to use AI in their applications.
