In this Javascript code-along video I show beginner programmers how to use arrays and objects to efficiently store and manipulate data. It’s done in a fun way by drawing and animating on an HTML canvas element.

Come join me to improve your coding skills!

While it’s not a Javascript tutorial as such, this video shows you how to:

  • declaring variables – using let and const
  • using functions
  • using arrays to store data
  • using the forEach and filter methods to work with arrays
  • using objects and object properties to group information that belongs together
  • drawing and animation techniques using the HTML Canvas element

The idea behind this code-along series is that practicing a little every day is a great way to improve your programming skills. Rather than coming up with your own projects you can code along with me. Then experiment and take the code to the next level.
