Learn JavaScript
The Hard Way

The only course that teaches you to build real websites that make real money...and bitcoin.

Start from nothing and learn to create websites that charge money.

I know, revolutionary. Never been done before. I don't know why, so I made this course.

Created by Zed A. Shaw--author of Learn Python The Hard Way, Learn Ruby the Hard Way, and Learn C the Hard Way--this course is a completely redesigned experience that gradually takes you through everything you need to know to code professional websites in JavaScript that play all types of media and accept payments. Check out the active curriculum list to see what's done, and what's being developed.
