Core Technologies

• HTML (HyperText Markup Language): The standard language for creating web pages and web applications. It defines the structure of web content.

• CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): CSS controls the layout, colors, fonts, and overall appearance of the website.

• JavaScript: It is essential for tasks like form validation, creating dynamic content, and handling user events.

Frameworks and Libraries

• Front-End Frameworks: Popular frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js that facilitate the development of complex and scalable user interfaces.

• CSS Frameworks: Frameworks such as Bootstrap, Foundation, or Tailwind CSS provide pre-designed components and utilities for rapid UI development.

​

Build Tools and Task Runners

• Package Managers: Tools like npm (Node Package Manager) or Yarn that manage dependencies for JavaScript projects.

• Task Runners and Module Bundlers: Tools like Webpack, Gulp, or Parcel that automate repetitive tasks such as minification, compilation, and bundling of assets.

​

APIs and AJAX

• APIs (Application Programming Interfaces): Techniques for fetching and manipulating data from a server using JavaScript.

• AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML): A method for updating parts of a web page without reloading the whole page, using XMLHttpRequest or the Fetch API.

Performance Optimization

• Code Optimization: Techniques to improve the performance of JavaScript, CSS, and HTML.

• Image and Asset Optimization: Methods to reduce the size of images and other assets to improve loading times.

• Lazy Loading: Strategies to load content as needed to improve performance and user experience.

Soft Skills

• Problem-Solving and Debugging: Developing the ability to identify and resolve issues efficiently.

• Collaboration and Communication: Working effectively in teams, often using tools like Slack or project management software.

• Continuous Learning: Staying updated with the latest trends and technologies in the fast-evolving field of front-end development.

​

Interview Prep

• Junior Level Test: You'll complete an online Technical Test that simulates real-world scenarios for junior-level front-end developers.

• Mid-Level Test: After successfully passing 10 different junior-level tests, you will progress to the Mid-Level Test, which prepares you for mid-range job responsibilities and challenges.

• Recruiter Interview: Finally, you will have an interview with a recruiter to assess your technical skills and overall interview readiness.

Responsive Design

• Media Queries: Techniques in CSS that allow content to adapt to different screen sizes and orientations.

• Flexbox and Grid: CSS layout models that provide efficient ways to design complex responsive layouts.

• Responsive Design Principles: Best practices for creating websites that work well on a variety of devices, from desktops to mobile phones.

Version Control

• Git: A version control system that tracks changes in source code during software development. Understanding Git is crucial for collaboration and code management.

• GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket: Platforms for hosting and managing Git repositories, facilitating collaboration and code sharing.

• ​

Preprocessors

• CSS Preprocessors: Tools like Sass or Less that extend CSS with variables, nested rules, and functions, making it more powerful and easier to maintain.

• JavaScript Preprocessors: Tools like Babel that allow developers to write next-generation JavaScript which is then compiled down to a version supported by current browsers.

Testing and Debugging

• Debugging Tools: Browser developer tools for inspecting and debugging code.

• Testing Frameworks: Tools like Jest, Mocha, or Jasmine for writing and running tests to ensure code quality and functionality.

​

​

Accessibility

• Web Accessibility Guidelines: Principles and best practices for making web content accessible to people with disabilities.

• ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications): A set of attributes that make web applications more accessible to users with disabilities.

​

Project Work

• Portfolio Development: Building a portfolio of projects to demonstrate skills and knowledge.

• Small Projects: Cover every element of development via small real-life projects throughout the course.

• Real-World Projects: Engaging in real-world projects or contributing to open-source projects to gain practical experience.

​

Performance Review

• Daily Standup: Each morning, you will have the opportunity to present your progress from the previous day, outline your plan for the day, and discuss any challenges you are encountering.

• Performance Review: Every week, you will participate in a performance review to identify what is going well, what needs to be stopped, and areas for improvement.
