The course Frontend 3 is given at @CMDA in 2017 between 25 September and 20 October.
Frontend 3 builds further on the knowledge acquired in Internetstandaarden, Inleiding Programmeren, Frontend 1, Frontend 2, and Backend (the last two are optional but recommended), amongst others.
In this course you’ll learn to use d3 to actually make what you design, to advance your web dev skills, and to adopt frameworks and libraries. In Project 1 (individual) and Project 2 (team) of Information Design you’ll apply your newfound skills.
If you’d like to continue with web development after this course check out the Minor Web Development. Feel free to ask your lecturer for more info about the minor.

If you have questions:
Frontend 3 is given in the Information Design semester (quarter 1 and 2). Information Design is all about data visualisation and infographics. In 6 courses and 3 projects you’ll learn how to visualise data and complex information. In Frontend 3 you’ll learn how to build that.
This semester (including this course) is quite technical. However, we’ll also test your creativity. See the below infographic about Frontend 3’s place in Information Design.
Frontend 3 is given at Communication and Multimedia Design, a design bachelor focused on interactive digital products and services. CMD is part of the Faculty of Digital Media and Creative Industries at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.
