Khan Window  Complete Program


 The Khan Academy videos let you edit the JavaScript code
to create your own cool images, animations and more.
 However, the code in the Khan Academy window is NOT a
full program: it only works inside Khan Academy's window.
 For your homework assignments, you need to turn in a
complete webpage that does not use the Khan Academy
window.
 Khan Academy uses JavaScript together with a powerful
JavaScript library called "Processing".
 In order for your code to work, you will need to have a copy
of p5.js in the same directory as your .html file.

WebStorm IDE

 WebStorm an Integrated Development Environment


(IDE) for writing JavaScript and HTML programs.

Can I use a different IDE?


 Anyone who already knows Sublime,
or another IDE should skip CS-105
and take CS-152. CS-105 is for noobs.
 If you are not already an expert in another IDE, then NO.
 The reason is simply that I will be teaching WebStorm. I will
be showing how to create projects, use the debugger, set
formatting, use shortcuts, ......
 These skills can all be done in different IDEs, but the
procedures are different. I do not want the lab instructors nor
myself to answer questions to some students that are totally
pointless to other students.
 The course is a group learning experience so lets all use the
4 same IDE.
