Compare 12 JavaScript courses from top providers — filter by price, level, provider & certificate.
12 beginner-level JavaScript courses, ranked by rating and learner count.
This filter returns courses tagged Beginner, which in this set means 40 courses — 38 of them free and all carry a certificate. The trade-off is that beginner courses tend to be shorter; most run under 300 hours while the paid options sit at 2 months or 6 months. If you need a faster entry point, the freeCodeCamp JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures sequence runs 300 hours at no cost. If you prefer a structured university track, Coursera's Python for Everybody Specialization runs 2 months and also carries a Beginner tag, though it teaches Python rather than JavaScript.
| Course | Provider | Duration | Price (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures | freeCodeCamp | 300 hours | 0 |
| 100 Days of Code™: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp | Udemy | Self-paced | 0 |
| Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate | Coursera | 6 months | 3999 |
This filter is the wrong call if you already know programming fundamentals or if you want a course that teaches a language other than JavaScript. In those cases open the All levels JavaScript Courses facet or the Free JavaScript Courses facet instead.
Back to the JavaScript courses hub. Free JavaScript Courses is a sibling facet.

For beginners, 'The Complete JavaScript Course' by Jonas Schmedtmann on Udemy offers a comprehensive, project-based approach. For a free, interactive option, freeCodeCamp's JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures certification is excellent.
Yes, it is possible. Platforms like freeCodeCamp and The Odin Project provide extensive free curricula. Supplementing these with YouTube resources like 'Namaste JavaScript' and building a strong project portfolio can lead to job opportunities without paid courses.
With dedicated effort (15-20 hours/week), it typically takes 6-12 months to learn JavaScript fundamentals, a framework (like React), Node.js, and build a portfolio to become job-ready for entry-level roles in India.
While JavaScript is foundational, for a 'good job' in India, you'll likely need to master a frontend framework (React, Angular, or Vue), understand backend concepts (Node.js/Express is a plus), databases, Git, and build a strong project portfolio. Data structures and algorithms are also crucial for interviews.
