JavaScript from Zero to Proficiency (Beginner): In this book, you will become more comfortable with JavaScript even if you have never coded before. This book will teach you how to code from scratch, explain programing principles such as variables, methods, statements, and much more. You will also learn how JavaScript can be used to add interaction to web pages using events, the DOM, and other key JavaScript concepts using a step-by-step method.

Unity 5 from Zero to Proficiency (Foundations): In this book, you will become more comfortable with Unity's interface and its core features by creating a project that includes both an indoor and an outdoor environment. This book only covers drag and drop features, so that you are comfortable with Unity's interface before starting to code (in the next book). After completing this book, you will be able to create outdoors environments with terrains and include water, hills, valleys, sky-boxes, use built-in controllers (First- and Third-Person controllers) to walk around the 3D environment and also add and pilot a car and an aircraft.​​
