Flowtype Fundamentals

by Jake Trent

Flowtype allows you to gradually create a strong, static type system for your JavaScript projects. This course will teach you how to use this tool to increase your confidence in your programs, help readability, and give you helpful feedback.

What you'll learn

Today's JavaScript programs are larger and more complex than ever. In this course, Flowtype Fundamentals, you will learn how to handle this growing complexity by gradually creating a strong, static type system for a JavaScript codebase. First, you will learn the value of types in general. Next, you will explore the fundamental types of Flow in action as you start a small project from scratch. Finally, you will discover how you can add types to a preexisting JavaScript codebase and how that can affect the experience. By the end of this course, you will feel prepared to use Flow as a tool to increase your confidence in your own JavaScript projects.
