Learn JavaScript
JavaScript is the brains behind the internet, updating websites, running games, and so much more. This book teaches you the basics of coding in JavaScript by creating The Room Adventure.
Note: This is an intermediate coding challenge.
The Room Adventure Game
Travel from room to room in a house you create. Find items and use them to fix broken things.
Convert your game into HTML, adding colors, images, traveling through the house using buttons instead of typing!
About This Book
The focus of the book is to teach you standard coding concepts that stretch to any programming language. So even if you switch to another language later, the lessons you learn in this book will benefit you.
We talk about about proper syntax for JavaScript, variable types, computer decision-making, loops, functions, and so much more.
In order to code, you only need simple text files. To test your code, you need access to an internet browser, but you don't need internet access. Chapter 1 covers the setup you need to get started.
This book is written by a middle school science teacher with over 17 years of experience working with kids. The format of the book is a step-by-step guide through the process with repetition and contains all the code available in the back of the book. A short reference guide is also included, as well as additional add-on features for the game on an exclusive website.

Stephen J. Wolf earned his PhD in science education in 2006 and has worked as a middle-school science teacher since 2001. His passion for chemistry and physics was inspired by watching Mr. Wizard's World as a child and learning that many of life's biggest mysteries could be explained through science. When he isn't helping his students discover logic and wonder in the classroom, Wolf enjoys spending time with his husband, Kevin, and watching Doctor Who with their two cats, Merlin and Monty. Wolf is the author of the Red Jade fantasy book series (tinyurl.com/redjadeseries). He currently resides in New York, and you can visit him online at StephenJWolf.com.
