Please note that the Wix editor has changed since this course was developed. The majority of the code will still work as taught in this course, but the buttons and layout of the Wix editor will look different. Also please note that I do not offer technical support for this course any longer. However, 99% of the time, student issues have been due to a syntax error (typo) in their code or from deviating from the course content. Please check your code carefully and note that Velo is a case sensitive language. All the best! Do you have a million-dollar website idea but dont have the technical skills to bring it to life? This course is for people just like you who want to create websites with advanced functionality but are not website developers by trade. You are generally quite computer savvy, and may have a light coding background even if it is just with formulas in Excel, hey thats a start! The good news is: you have found the right course! Ever since Wix released Velo, you can do just about anything on the Wix platform using code and data while still having the traditional Wix ‘drag and drop’ functionality at your disposal to make it all look great. Velo is the name of the new programming language for the Wix platform. Some people refer to it as Wix Code. It is essentially a variant of Javascript and the best part is: it is relatively easy to learn. Velo by Wix allows for the rapid development of advanced websites with significantly less development time needed. It is literally a game changer! This is an applied guide to Velo (a.k.a. Wix Code) meaning you will learn how to build a fully functional website, from scratch, using code. I believe the best way to learn is by way of practical example. Therefore, everything taught in this course will have a purpose or business function behind it. This is not a course in programming theory and vague principals only real-world application and functionality which you can take, adapt and apply to your own Wix based websites. What will you learn in this course?In this course you will learn how to build a fully functional jobs board website, step by step using Velo Code and Wix!
