The goal of this course is simple: greatly strengthen your core JavaScript skills while preparing and updating you to write modern JavaScript.
The course includes 21 modules that go through ES6 in its entirety. An exhaustive list of topics is cataloged below, but at a glance:
- ES6 Easy Wins - New Variables, Scoping and Template Strings
- New Language Features β Arrow Functions, Destructuring
- New Iterables and Looping over data
- What the heck those ...three ...little ...dots actually do
- How to structure your JavaScript with Modules and NPM
- Advanced Classes, Proxies, Generators, Sets and Maps
- How to write clean and consistent JavaScript with ESLint
- Proper tooling + bundling setup with Webpack
- + So much more β Check below for a full listing of videos
Who is This For?
Almost everyone! Advanced JavaScript developers will be able to go through the course a little more quickly, but I've designed this course to be as approachable as possible.
Some of the videos feature a review of topics that are a little shaky for some such as scoping, keyword this and prototypal inheritance.
This isn't JavaScript from scratch, so if you are looking for a beginner course this probably isn't it. You should have some knowledge of functions, variables, Objects, Arrays and other fundamentals.
- Those reliant on jQuery, looking to have a better grasp on the core features of JavaScript.
- Existing JS developers who want to bridge their personal learning gaps and learn ES6 start to finish.
- PHP & WordPress Developers looking to become stronger on the client side.
- Anyone who wants to get better at JavaScript and learns well from seeing both fundamental and advanced concepts in practice.
Video pacing is just right - fast enough to keep you interested without passing by or assuming any details.
Seriously, it won't put you to sleep.

Worth It?
Need to convince your Boss?
I've put over 300 hours β or $40,000 worth of my time β into this course gaining a deep understanding of each feature, creating examples and distilling it into something that is easy for you to consume.
This course should take you between 5 and 15 hours to complete versus anywhere from 50 to 300 hours to learn on your own, scraping together resources.
I've spent the time so you don't have to. Spend a few hours learning ES6 with me and you'll save yourself hours of Googling and Stack Overflowing in the future. I'll mama bird you the stuff you need to know to keep building the things you make.
As with all my courses, there is 100% money back if it's not a good fit. Give it a shot!
FAQ
I lost, deleted or never got my welcome email! What do I do?
Log into your account, or create an account with the same email you used to buy the series.
What format are the videos? How do I watch them?
Once you buy a package, you will be mailed access to a course viewer area where you can stream all the videos. Buyers of the Master Package will also be able to download them for off-line viewing. All the videos were professionally recorded at 1920×1080 with top quality audio β no pops, echoes, chair squeaks, breathing or gross mouth sounds here!
How long do I get access for?
There is no time limit, and no monthly/yearly fee to keep access. Log in whenever you like and the course will be there for you!
Do you provide a certificate of completion?
Sure do! In your course dashboard you can download an official certificate of completion that can be used to be reimbursed by your employer or land that dream job you are applying for.
Why should I learn ES6 if I still have to support older browsers like IE8?
Great question - you can start using ES6 today even if you are supporting older browsers. Module #14 will detail how to use Babel and Polyfilling to get everything working 100% in all your browsers.
