JavaScript Crash Course by Nick Morgan
JavaScript is the programming language of the internet - the secret sauce that makes websites dynamic, responsive, and all-around awesome. This fast-paced tutorial quickly teaches total beginners how to code in this popular, easy-to-learn language. Light-hearted and hands-on, the book introduces you to programming essentials through fun examples, hands-on exercises, and cool projects like building a Pong-style computer game. You'll discover all of the important aspects of the language (without delving into expert-level nitty-gritty details or confusing jargon) as you develop a fast knack for programming with JavaScript. Learn fundamental JS coding concepts, including objects, functions, arrays, and loops, explore key web programming topics, like interactivity and drawing graphics with Canvas, use JavaScript to make games, apps, and even create music.
"The perfect no-nonsense guide for folks who just want to roll their sleeves up and pick up the basics from scratchIt skips the distractions that often complicate a mastery of web programming, like UI frameworks, build tools, and server tech, using real projects to give aspiring web engineers a solid foundation."

"When learning an instrument, the best results come from balancing theory with playing real music. JavaScript Crash Course provides a similar balance for learning to program. You get to see JavaScript's workings as a language and fundamental part of the Web, while also sinking your teeth into some practical projects. This book will help you build up your JavaScript 'repertoire' and develop a good mindset for progressing further."
