About this event

This session introduces the core logic behind JavaScript using Scratch-style visual programming concepts to make complex ideas easier to understand.

Before diving fully into JavaScript syntax, we will focus on understanding how programming logic works , including variables, conditions, loops, and events,in a simplified, visual way. This helps participants grasp how code thinks before worrying about writing perfect syntax.

During this session, we will:

  • Break down fundamental JavaScript concepts

  • Understand logic flow through visual examples

  • Translate Scratch-style thinking into real programming logic

  • Practice small exercises to reinforce understanding

This will be a hands-on coding session, where participants actively build, experiment, and test concepts in real time.

By the end of the session, participants will feel more confident approaching JavaScript and understanding how it actually works behind the scenes.
