*UPDATED* JavaScript Complete Series 2023 - Part 8: Dates - working with dates in JavaScript

What You Will Learn?

• WELCOME TO THIS SKILLSHARE CLASS ON DATES.
• THIS IS PART 8 OF MY JAVASCRIPT GRANDMASTER SERIES.
• What we cover in this particular class?.
• We will cover of ton of information in this entire series, but for Part 8 we concentrate on JavaScript Dates. .
• Most professional developers have never worked for a company or on a project that didn’t struggle with date and time issues in some form..
• Most apps you’ll work on requires the use of time in some way, meaning that at some point you’re going to have to collect, retrieve and display dates and times..
• There’s not one fix for dealing with dates or times and this means that we can never escape the inherent complexity that comes with the concept of time. But the good news, is that there are steps you can take to make it less of a pain..
• A JavaScript date is fundamentally specified as the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since midnight on January 1, 1970, UTC. But why exactly is this? Well, that is part of what this awesome class talks about..
• What is interesting though is that even though the time value of a Date object is based on UTC, the basic methods to fetch the date and time all work in your local (i.e. host system) time zone..
• Anyways, enough talk. Lets jump into class. .
• What this entire JavaScript Grandmaster course covers?.
• JavaScript is the #1 scripting language of the web, where a lot of the dynamic and styled content is handled by JavaScript in the background. But before using this language to create dynamic websites, you need to have a firm grasp of how it works behind the scenes..
• By the end of this course, you'll be able to “speak” JavaScript by gaining an understanding of how the browser uses it, what variables, objects and functions are, what different data types there are and how to manipulate content on a website. We dig deeper and create our own dialog methods from scratch. We learn about the arrow syntax, Math.random() function, looping through objects and arrays, working with dates. We look at prototypes, JS Engines, the Execution Stack and a whole bunch more!.
• Through practical examples, this course helps you understand JavaScript piece by piece. And we use the latest and best features of JavaScript along the way so you can stay ahead of the pack..
• WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?.
