Description

This course guides you through building a dynamic card-matching game using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Starting with project setup, you’ll structure HTML and CSS for a responsive grid layout to display the cards. You’ll learn essential CSS techniques, including root variables, responsive design elements, and grid-based styling, to enhance the game’s visual appeal and performance. Moving into JavaScript, you’ll load card data from JSON and apply asynchronous programming with fetch and async/await to populate the game grid seamlessly. The course covers array manipulation, DOM management, and efficient card rendering techniques that ensure smooth gameplay. You’ll implement the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm to create random card orders and learn advanced event handling to add interactive flip animations using CSS 3D transformations. In the final sections, we’ll add complex game logic for card matching, scoring, and restrictions on player actions for a polished user experience. To elevate your game’s visual appeal, you’ll incorporate animations like falling stars and transition effects. By the end, you’ll have a fully functional, interactive game, plus valuable JavaScript and CSS skills transferable to other projects, making this course ideal for developers eager to expand their frontend capabilities.
