Modern JavaScript for the Impatient by Cay S. Horstmann
Exploit the Power of Modern JavaScript and Avoid the Pitfalls JavaScript was originally designed for small-scale programming in web browsers, but modern JavaScript is radically different. Nowadays, JavaScript programmers actively embrace functional, object-oriented, and asynchronous programming, while deprecating error-prone concepts from the past. Modern JavaScript for the Impatient is a complete yet concise guide to JavaScript E6 and beyond. Rather than first requiring you to learn and transition from older versions, it helps you quickly get productive with today&;s far more powerful versions and rapidly move from languages such as Java, C#, C, or C++. Bestselling programming author Cay S. Horstmann covers all you need to know, provided in small chunks organized for quick access and easy understanding. Horstmann&;s practical insights and sample code help you take advantage of all that&;s new, avoid common pitfalls and obsolete features, and make the most of modern JavaScript&;s robust toolchains and frameworks. Quickly master modern JavaScript&;s implementation of fundamental programming constructs Avoid legacy techniques that create unnecessary complexity and risk Make the most of functional, object-oriented, and asynchronous techniques Use modules to efficiently organize and run complex programs Write more powerful, flexible, and concise programs with metaprogramming Extend JavaScript&;s power via JavaScript libraries, frameworks, and platformsWhether you&;re just getting started with JavaScript or you&;re an experienced developer, this guide will help you write tomorrow&;s most robust, efficient, and secure JavaScript code.
