Requirements

• Basic JavaScript is recommended
• Desire to master object-oriented programming languages
• A computer is required as you need to code alongside me to learn effectively

Target audience

• Anyone interested in learning the art and science behind JavaScript prototypes
• BUSY PEOPLE who want to become certified and confident about what “prototypes” mean in the shortest time possible
• Anyone who has completed my JavaScript Complete Grandmaster course
• YES: This course is for intermediates. It’s aimed at people who have some knowledge of JavaScript, but want to dig deeper
• NO: This course is NOT only for intermediate beginners. It is a complete course that goes from basics to advanced.
• YES: This course is for someone wanting to be a professional, to be expert and confident in knowing how to create objects and structure their code
• Those who want to learn modern coding without third party libraries and frameworks
• Those interested in building their own frameworks, or being better able to learn from the source code of other well-known frameworks and libraries
• Those who have some knowledge of OOP-based languages and JavaScript, but little knowledge about how prototype inheritance works behind the scenes, and how to practically implement best practices in their websites
