Hello everyone!
I'm looking forward to the Fall! ITP 404 is one of my favorite classes to teach as I am passionate about Frontend Engineering.
Every semester I get asked by a few students if I think they have enough prerequisite knowlege to take this class. I always say students should be comfortable with HTML and JavaScript fundamentals. This includes variables, conditional logic, loops, arrays, string concatenation, and working with the DOM such as using document.getElementById
, innerHTML
, and setting up events (click, keyup, keydown, mouseover, blur, etc).
With that said, I made a small JavaScript application that covers most of the above. If you feel like you can build this, you'll do great, assuming you put in the work :).
I have included the list of foods used in this application below so you don't have to type it out. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
