JavaScript allows you to quickly and easily modify the functionality and look of SharePoint. Many site owners and administrators are intimidated by it, but you don't have to be a developer to leverage the power of JavaScript. This course helps you understand how JavaScript and SharePoint work together and what you can do with them.
