JavaScript for Designers
Coming to JavaScript from design without programming experience can be disorienting. jQuery makes it easy to get things done without a computer science degree. But dig a little deeper and you find yourself in unknown territory: What exactly does an object look like? What’s a method? Or a first-class object? And what is up with the turf warfare over functional vs. OOP? This talk is great for anyone without programming experience who wants to understand JavaScript and basic programming concepts better. Expect lots of 'ah-ha!' moments and funny illustrations from award-winning cartoonist turned front-end developer Rachel Nabors.
