You will continue to Josh W Comeau. TrustMyCourse does not sell this course.

A course on the decorative end of front-end work: particle effects, SVG animation, advanced interaction and HTML Canvas, with bonus material on animation design, layout animations in React and a set of open-ended challenges. Delivered as interactive articles with over a hundred short videos, exercises and mini-games. Sold in three packages that differ by how much of the material is included, all with lifetime access, Discord access and an unconditional thirty-day refund.

Who it is for

Front-end developers comfortable with CSS who want to build the animated details most sites never attempt.

Recorded from the provider’s published description of the course.

What the course covers

Summarised by TrustMyCourse from public course information. Wording is our own, not the provider’s.

  1. Particle Effects

    The opening part, and the only one included in the smallest package.

  2. The Magic of SVG

    Animating vector graphics, including what SVG can express that CSS cannot.

  3. Advanced Interactions

    Interaction work beyond hover and click states.

  4. Working with HTML Canvas

    Dropping below the DOM to draw and animate directly.

  5. Bonus: Animation Design

    Deciding what to animate and why, rather than how to implement it.

  6. Bonus: Animation Challenges

    Open-ended exercises to apply the preceding parts.

  7. Bonus: Layout Animations in React

    Animating layout changes specifically within React applications.

    Harvard University (CS50)

    Artificial Intelligence

    CS50's Introduction to Artificial Intelligence with Python

    Harvard's AI course, published free as OpenCourseWare. Seven lecture topics work through search, knowledge representation, uncertainty, optimisation, machine learning, neural networks and language, with Python projects attached to each. It is explicitly a follow-on rather than a first course: the stated prerequisite is CS50x or roughly a year of Python experience, and the material assumes the learner can already write and debug their own programs.

    Programming

    CS50's Introduction to Computer Science

    Harvard's introductory computer science course, taught through eleven weeks that begin in Scratch and move into C, then Python, SQL and web development with Flask. It spends unusually long on what happens underneath a program, covering arrays, memory, pointers and data structures, before reaching higher-level languages, and ends with a self-directed final project. The course materials are free; a certificate is a separate paid option through edX.
