Course Updated January 2024!

Do you have a million-dollar website idea but lack the technical skills to bring it to life? This course is designed for computer-savvy individuals who want to create websites with advanced functionality – even if you aren't a professional website developer. You might be familiar with basic coding concepts (like formulas in Excel!) and are ready to take the next step.

The good news? You've found the perfect solution! Since Wix released Velo, building powerful websites is more accessible than ever. Velo, also known as Wix Code, is a JavaScript-based programming language that allows you to add complex features to your Wix site while retaining the user-friendly drag-and-drop interface. It’s a game-changer for those looking to develop advanced websites with less development time.

This is an applied guide to Velo (Wix Code), meaning you'll learn by building a fully functional website from scratch using code. We focus on practical examples and real-world applications, not just theoretical concepts. You'll gain skills you can immediately adapt and apply to your own Wix projects.
