About the Course

This course is the first in a series that will allow you to expand your skills as an Android developer into the world of cross-platform mobile development. This will allow you to use your foundations as an Android developer to build cross-platform mobile applications. The first step in this expansion is learning to program in JavaScript. This will prepare you to learn to use the React library for mobile development. JavaScript is the programming language that powers the modern web. In this course, you will learn the basic concepts of web development with JavaScript. You will work with functions, objects, arrays, variables, data types, the HTML DOM, and much more. You will learn how to use JavaScript and discover interactive possibilities with modern JavaScript technologies. Finally, you will learn about the practice of testing code and how to write a unit test using Jest. This course can be applied to multiple Specializations or Professional Certificates programs. Completing this course will count towards your learning in any of the following programs: • Meta Android Developer Professional Certificate • Meta iOS Developer Professional Certificate By the end of this course you will be able to: • Explain the basic concepts of web development with Javavscript. • Practice using functions, objects, arrays, variables, data types, the HTML DOM, and much more. • Use JavaScript within the React framework • Practice testing code and how to write a unit test using Jest...

Decent content, but the quizzes were not made well. I tried to report the 1 min per attempt on Week 3 Quiz, luckily it got updated. Please double-check the questions and choices especially the code blocks which have missing semi-colons or closing brackets. I have this 1 question where I don't get points EVEN IF it says "That's correct..."

The topics covered were interesting, but the assessments need a lot of clean up work, especially the quizzes. This would be a much less frustrating course if the necessary improvements to the assessments are completed.

Tests , which are used to grade assessment of learned skills are flawed forcing user to take them again . This should have been tested before launching a learning program .

Solid course but the quizzes are full of incorrect answers, and I mean more so than any other course I've taken at Coursera.

There is surely a wealth of good information in the course but I wasted a ridiculous amount of time having to go through the assignments repeatedly because of the errors and bugs in their grading system. Considering that I'm paying for a course on effective programming, it was immensely frustrating to be given 0 marks for various questions, even when the description would state 'that's correct!'. I would then receive less than the 80% pass mark and have to repeat the whole assignment, having to select random incorrect answers and hope for the best because the correct ones weren't accepted. If you get a mark under 80% 3 times in a row you have to wait 24 hours to try again. What a total joke.

Not a good course, with lots of repeated content, but the worst thing is that the grading system for most of the quices is a disaster, questions marked as wrong but the feedback saying "That's correct!", and a lot of multiple choice questions with the wrong answer selected as correct.

A lot of mistakes in the quizes which makes it tough to pass as you have to guess the right answers they have given, rather than selecting the actual right answer

I did this course only because it is part of the Meta Android Developer Professional Certificate, but I've developed JS apps for at least 6 years. Of course, I thought this would be the easiest course of the certification, but then I started getting bad results in the quizzes. "Everybody makes mistakes", I thought, so I checked the feedback of those quizzes to see what I could learn. To my surprise, I noticed that some of the answers marked as incorrect were obviously correct. "Everybody makes mistakes", I thought again, this time to justify the Meta team. But the problem became recurring and with multiple questions, and in every single quiz (or at least most of them). That was really, really annoying. Given my previous experience working with JS, I could handle all that, but then I thought about people who are new to JS and how confusing this course can be. So, I definitely don't recommend it. The material is really good, but the theoretical quizzes are poorly reviewed

The course is quite interesting, but it's discouraging that the assessments are incorrect, marking correct questions as incorrect. This problem has persisted for many months!

Material in the quizzes is inaccurate. Course content is solid but the quizzes are full of bugs.
