A good understanding of all the above mentioned topics. Want to check your Knowledge? Go through the [JavaScript Fundamentals README](fundamentals/README.md) and research/ ask for help (Slack!) with the concepts that are not entirely clear.

1. Download and install the *LTS* version of NodeJS - https://nodejs.org/en/download/

To test that it was installed and running properly, go to your terminal and run the command: node -v You should get the node version printed on your terminal, for example, v8.9.1

2. Although you are free to make you own choice of text/code editor to use during class and homework, we have good experiences with Microsoft's free VSCode editor, which is supported on Windows, Mac and Linux. Please refer to our [VSCode Tips](../VSCodeTips/README.md) for more information.

Please watch the following parts of the course, [Programming Foundations Fundamentals](https://www.lynda.com/Programming-Foundations-tutorials/Welcome/83603/90426-4.html) on Lynda.com (if you don't have access to Lynda yet ask Gijs):

Only watch the below chapters:

0. Introduction

1. Programming Basics

2. Core Programming Syntax

3. Variables and Data Types

- Read this ~ http://speakingjs.com/es5/ch01.html read up to and including the *Strings* chapter (it’s okay if you don’t understand all of it yet, we will cover these concepts in class as well. Do make sure to write or document the questions you have so we can discuss them in class)

- Read the entire JavaScript Introduction at MDN~ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Introduction

- Helpful resource: http://jsbooks.revolunet.com/ (here you can find tons of free JavaScript books online)
