5 Javascript Projects to Build (For Beginners)

If you have been learning Javascript from a book or tutorial and haven't built your first project yet then this video is for you. In this video I lay out 5 projects that you can start working on to refine your problem solving skills and build confidence in creating more difficult projects in the future.

If you're just starting out; did this video help give you a clear idea of what projects to build?

[alexzajacek]

These beginners projects really did help build momentum in my coding. They helped challenge me and got me more comfortable and confident with my coding skills. Now instead of intimidated I feel excited to start a new project.

Good advice. I've been wasting too much time messing around with CSS lately. When it's the Javascript that I really need to be focused on.

This is perfect all of these are at the right difficulty level where its hard enough that I'll learn something but easy enough that I can see the steps to take to get through it.

This is great man!
I'm so proud, it's been two weeks since I started learning JavaScript, yesterday I completed the Vowel Counting App, and today I did the Note Taking App (I had previous basic experience with Python), but really thanks for these great ideas!
Although the design aspect is like... I'm leaving it for later haha, it doesn't look that good. But it works.
Happy!

The to-do list was just perfect for me. I've been teaching for a while and stopped programming. I've recently came back to the game and noticed nearly forgot about everything. The to-do list really helped me remember about a lot of things.
Thanks, friend.

You are my first mentor even before I actually started to code . I used to listen your channel content when I ran. Now I have 1-year of programming experience. I appreciate !

I love this video as a beginner. It's a really good place to get started with polishing the fundamentals little by little and since they are all related to some extent it also helps subconsciously revise what we already know. Thanks for this!

[Hippyfishhikes]

I'm just at the cusp of changing my major to software dev... searching and stumbling to find your channel has been wonderful, your content is easily conveyed in a kind and humble manner. Thank you and keep up the great work!🙏🏼😊

Woah no kidding i was just YouTubing how to get started with projects and bomb you release this vid

[cedricmendoza]

You just reminded me of something I really needed. I've been following project based tutorials and there's something about it but I just didn't think it was helping much. Nothing better than getting your own hands dirty and have your own brain working.

[jasonmurphy]

If you’re feeling up to it, a fun way to improve the note project is to implement a database, add some simple authentication, and design it so users can save their notes to their account. And add a share feature that allows them to share a URL that loads that note, which doesn’t require authentication and is non editable.

Thanks for giving out these nice videos for beginners. I wish someone like you had made this video years ago it would have saved me a lot of time. I got stuck in tutorial mode for so long cause I didn't understand what type of project I needed to do. Too large of a project felt overwhelm and projects I wanted to do felt difficult to start cause I didn't have these basic projects to learn the logic for bigger projects. Thanks again.

[coleanderson]

Was watching youtube tutorials and using google to learn c# and javascript. Ran across this video now I'm on the third application. Definitely helped get the ball rolling. Thank you, sir!

[Castisto]

liked them alot and helped me alot too. mostly getting rid of the 'fear' of making things. done all 5 of them in a week :) very nice to get suggestions from a reliable person like andy :) hope there is a follow up video for intermediate projects too

[KGcodes]

Great suggestions! I’m definitely a proponent of building real projects along with your learning. There are certain things you only learn from doing.

[DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD]

This is actually my best downloaded video currently. Learned allot from the project. Thank you

[jaydenmoon]

Thank you Andy for all your videos - you have a really awesome attitude and are very helpful - thank you again 🤗

[husseindhooma]

Hey Andy thanks for the brilliant content, man those apps look so simple, but the complexity behind it is major. Thank you once again really appreciate your info man.
