You will finish up the JavaScript section of the video by learning about the Document Object Model or DOM.</p> <p>The second part of the video introduces jQuery and how to use it in your projects. You will then manipulate the DOM and finish up with a quick overview of a couple of advanced jQuery features.</p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>We break the new concepts up into their own individual exercises to make sure we cover them in-depth yet at a quick pace.</p>
