So welcome to the class and Jake Query brought to you by creative in school my name is Keith Hearn and
I will be your web instructor for this course.
I've been working with students for over 20 years doing web development and trained hundreds of students
in classrooms and online in all different things both graphic design and web design.
I'm really excited to get into Jade queery So Jake Query is basically a framework of pre-written javascript
and what that means is it's one big file that allows you to do all sorts of things that normally you
would have had to have written by hand in javascript itself.
So saving us a ton of time a ton of effort to have to learn how to do all this stuff.
Instead all was pre-compiled into one big file that you can access through.
Jake Query and we can do all sorts of cool things with it.
So it does.
Jake Query do exactly.
Well it helps deal with browser differences so we can help alleviate some of the issues you have with
cross browser issues going from maybe like Internet Explorer to firefighters fire to Chrome and things
like that.
It also helps simplify common tasks that you may run across while you're doing web stuff that also really
helps reduce web code.
That's one of the big things that search engines Renk Web sites and these days is speed.
So if you have a whole bunch of little javascript pieces of code in your file that take it the search
engines a lot longer to have to read through.
Therefore slowing your site down there for ranking your site lower or Jake really comes into play and
it gives one big file that it can just read right through speeding up your Web site.
Some common tasks that you can do with Jay queries are things like creating an event or where an app
retrieves data from a page it's based on an event or manipulate data on the page.
Basically what we're going to use it for is animation and customizing stuff on a web page itself.
There's all sorts of things you can do with it.
I want to get into more of the things that can be more practical that most people will be using a query
for and running it into several different projects using it.
So again some of the things that you can use query for is things like HTL manipulation and CSSA manipulation
animation Ajax things like that may sound a little bit scary right now but it's really not that big
of a deal.
We will be doing programming in here and you will see all sorts of cool things you can do with it.
What I would suggest is having at least a little bit of a background in each team out and see us before
we get started with the scores.
If you don't have that already ready go ahead and go over to create an online school dot com and check
out some of the other great videos we have on those subjects on there.
If you are up to speed Let's go ahead and get started.
