About This Course
One Month JavaScript is a series of video and projects that can transform anyone - even a total beginner - into a JavaScript developer. In just one month you will build two real-world projects that you can add to your career portfolio.
Week 1 - The Top 10 Concepts That Are The Same in Every Programming Language
What is JavaScript? This week we’ll work on an app called “Happy Hour” that will tell you where to go to happy hour after work.
Week 2 - Giphy API
Now, we’ll make an app that searches for animated GIFs. It will require us to build a search bar, make an API call to giphy.com, and then to display all the JSON data we receive as images on our site.
Course Includes:
- Learn JavaScript with 3+ hours of step-by-step video tutorials
- Code four JavaScript projects

Welcome to One Month JavaScript!
One Month JavaScript offers a series of video and projects that can transform anyone—even a total beginner—into a JavaScript developer. Let's start here! Keep watching for a quick summary of what to expect from the course and to get familiar with the One Month method of teaching.
Oh, The Projects You'll Make!
Over the next 4 weeks, you'll build four projects using JavaScript: A basic JavaScript app, a GIF Search Engine using the GIPHY API, a SoundCloud music player, and an app using Google Charts. Building these will teach you important concepts you need to know to not just be a decent JavaScript developer, but to be a decent developer in general, no matter the language you use.
What is JavaScript?
Let's make sure we're both on the same page! In this lesson we go over some definitions of terms and concepts that will be used in the course. We start with what programming entails, look at JavaScript and also go over other frontend technologies such as HTML and CSS.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a One Month Coding Bootcamp?
A. Our bootcamps are 100% online, so you can participate from anywhere in the world. You will be given access to course video lessons throughout the month, which is where you'll first learn the material.
Q. How much time will I need to commit?
A. Our bootcamps require around 2-4 hours per week (depending on how fast you go). That time will be spent watching video lessons and completing homework that is given to you throughout the course.
Q. How is One Month different from other learning platforms?
We've learned from our past students that you're 78% more likely to complete a bootcamp successfully if you're working with other people. Our online bootcamps offer a premium level of interactivity with your instructor as well as other students so you'll never feel alone on your learning journey.
Q. Are One Month bootcamps worth my time and money?
A. If you want to take an intensive 8-10 week in-person course that costs thousands of dollars, then One Month isn't for you. But, if you're looking for a fast-paced intro to a computer programming language that is taught in a fun, fast and effective way at a fraction of the price and on your own schedule, you're in the right place.
