What you should know

Up and Running with CoffeeScript is not a beginner course, and I'm starting with the assumption that you're pretty familiar with JavaScript before tackling CoffeeScript. If you need help with JavaScript, a great way to get started is with JavaScript for Web Designers by Joe Chellman. This is an excellent introduction to the language. Now, you should be pretty familiar with JavaScript functions. So if you need help with that, make sure you check out the course called JavaScript: Functions. You should also be familiar with the DOM and how to access elements on your pages. If you need help with that, check out JavaScript: Enhancing the DOM. Finally, you should also be familiar with JavaScript objects and the JSON language. If you need help with JSON, make sure you check out JavaScript and JSON. Up and Running with CoffeeScript is not for beginners. You need to have some good knowledge of JavaScript, because what you're going to be writing is a language that compiles into JavaScript. You'll really get a lot more outta this course if you have a lot of solid knowledge about the JavaScript language.
