Coding for everyone workshop: add some JavaScript to our landing pages
Dettagli
This is the second episode of our workshop on how to build a landing page from scratch (https://www.meetup.com/turn-into-coders/events/fxjxspyxnbmc/).
After having spent some time on HTML and CSS, it's time to put everything together and add some JavaScript.
We'll start from an existing page and we'll write together the JS code needed to add some more interactions. We'll see how the JS can interact with the HTML, the browser and the user.
Stretch goal for the event is interaction with an existing server via REST APIs.
------------------------ the usual format follows ------------------------
We learn programming together, also starting from zero.
Turn into Coders organizes Coding for everyone, a gentle introduction to coding in JavaScript or Python, open to whoever wants to learn how to program, also starting from zero.
It's not a theory lesson: we work together in pairs. Bring your laptop if you can. But if you don't have a one, don't worry. We encourage people to work in pairs and anyway we always have a couple of spares.
The group is based on cooperative learning between peers. There is always someone experienced proposing study materials or helping out. Don't expect a lesson though, we are all learning collaborating in front of a computer.
--- JAVASCRIPT ---
We recommend Free Code Camp (https://www.freecodecamp.com) for who is getting started. Instead for who wants to get better in JS we recommend to solve and create katas on Codewars (http://codewars.com/).
--- PYTHON ---
If you are interested in Python you can join too! The kind folks of Python Italia (http://associazione.python.it/) are helping out during the events. We have a list of recommendations (most links are in Italian, but we welcome everyone: https://pythonitalia.github.io/python-abc/). English speakers can start here: https://learnpythonthehardway.org/python3/
--- PROJECTS ---
You can also join to work on your web project or to learn other programming languages, you'll surely find good company.

The project is based on an idea of Founders & Coders (https://foundersandcoders.com/).
Our website is http://www.turnintocoders.com - and we have a super duper newsletter, subscribe!
Check the support material for the meetup (https://github.com/turnintocoders/codingforeveryone/blob/master/meetup-support.md).
All the recommended materials are the prerequisites for our bootcamp (http://www.turnintocoders.it/en/bootcamp.html), an intensive programme to become web developer.
