A Beginner’s Guide To JQuery – Part 1

I don’t know about you, but the real reason I personally got into Javascript was that I wanted to do animations. Animations are cool. Everyone wants to add flashy effects with the least amount of effort and with JQuery (and a number of other Javascript frameworks), it is indeed possible. However, I thought that I wouldn’t be able to learn how to implement animations until a good while later as I assumed that animating DOM elements would require a strong foundation of knowledge on the framework. Well, that wasn’t the case. If you have any experience with programming, be it PHP, C#, Java or any other language, picking up Javascript, and thereafter, JQuery, will not take long at all.
