JavaScript DOM Crash Course - Part 1

This crash course focuses on the DOM WITHOUT JQUERY. In this part we will talk about what the JavaScript DOM (Document Object Model) is and we will look at the different selectors like
document.getElementById()
document.getElementsByClassName()
document.getElementsByTagName()
document.querySelector()
document.querySelectorAll()
We will also look at how to change content and styles via these selectors

Hello, what do you recommend to learn after DOM?

[@dragosgheceanu9847]

@@gatosandrea after DOM you are ready to work, just have a portfolio with projects if to learn - then it is surely React, Vue or Angular and also Git and Npm

[@gatosandrea]

@@dragosgheceanu9847 Ooh, okay. I think I'd do some projects because I tend to forget some syntax and how things work. If to learn, which one you'd recommend me to learn first? And anyway, thank u so much for your answer :)

[@garveziukas]

@@gatosandrea Look for which one is the most popular in your area or what companies you want to work for use. Generally speaking you cannot go wrong with React since it's popular everywhere and most employers ask you to know one of those three anyway, no need to learn all of them, focus on truly understanding how things work and how to write code that does what you want it to do instead of going on a frameworks/tools/libraries frenzy many beginners fall for. It's also really important to feel comfortable with vanilla JS, too.

[@DivineJesusPrayers]

Hi Brad, for all the work and content you put out in this channel, you have my undying respect and gratitude. It takes a heart full of compassion, dedication and commitment to do what you do consistently. May you NEVER lack for energy, wisdom and resources to continue this great work. Thanks a million times over!!!

@@shadydelivery me too. I couldnt afford bootcamp, but this man single handedly made coding "click" for me. So much so, that 6 months of learning with random tutorials was surpassed by watching this channel for 1 month. Ive got my first landing page to build this week (first paying project period). Im so exited. I was ovwrwhelmed by all the stuff i needed to learn, but once it clicked, the thought of learning all the new tools makes me happy, not scared anymore :).

Dude, this was the best explanation I've seen of this concept. Most of the tutorials I've seen run through the material so fast they forget to lay out the logic, then they give you a project to do before you even learn it! It sucks because I then have to go somewhere else to fill in the gaps.

[@josuegarduno7154]

Took me around ninety minutes to get through the entire video because I was taking notes and coding along. You have such a great way to explain concepts that I couldn't understand yet.

In case anyone wonders, you don't need querySelectorAll for odd/even. Just use an if statement with modulus like x % 2 == 0. This can be handy for dynamically generating tables also.
