JavaScript: Best Practice
by James Kolce Moritz Kroger Ivan Curic Samier Saeed Jeff Mott M. David Green Craig BucklerThere's no doubt that the JavaScript ecosystem changes fast. Not only are new tools and frameworks introduced and developed at a rapid rate, the language itself has undergone big changes with the introduction of ES2015 (aka ES6). Understandably, many articles have been written complaining about how difficult it is to learn modern JavaScript development these days. We're aiming to minimize that confusion with this set of books on modern JavaScript. This book presents modern JavaScript best practice, utilizing the features now available in the language that enable you to write more powerful code that is clean, performant, maintainable, and resusable.

JavaScript Bibliography
by Safari Books Online Content TeamJavaScript used to be notoriously difficult to work with. Everything had to be written from scratch, every browser worked differently, and common development niceties like debuggers didn’t exist. Now JavaScript has all of the tools that developers need. Libraries like jQuery, AngularJS, Backbone.js and Ember.js make it easier to support a wide variety of browsers. Unit testers like Yui Test and QUnit make it possible to write rock solid, tested code. And all modern browsers included a suite of developer tools to ease the pains of building web apps. We have chosen in this bibliography a selection of JavaScript books that can take you from newbie all the way to ninja. Begin by learning the basics and best practices. Once you are comfortable, move onto more advanced topics like unit testing, performance enhancements, and design patterns. Learn how libraries like AngularJS, Backbone.js, Ember.js and jQuery can increase your productivity. Step into the fast growing world of mobile development with web frameworks like jQuery Mobile and cross-platform frameworks like PhoneGap. And finally, go full circle with JavaScript on the server with Node.js. With JavaScript you can create dynamic websites for desktop and mobile browsers, create fast and efficient servers, and build apps to sell for nearly every smartphone market place. JavaScript’s popularity is poised for continued growth and this bibliography can help you to grow your JavaScript skills.
JavaScript by Example
by Dani AkashJavaScript is the programming language that all web developers need to learn. Its flexible, simple, and powerful, but knowing where to start can be intimidating. Even if you've barely touched JavaScript before, the projects in this book will have you building amazing JavaScript applications in no time. This book takes you from beginner to winner with JavaScript. Through a series of engaging projects that showcase how easy it is for you to create great things with JavaScript, you will learn the essentials of modern JavaScript. The techniques and tools you use to build your projects are the cornerstone of professional JavaScript development, and you'll get a great grounding in all the things that count. The first item on our JavaScript to-do list is to build a To-do list app, which you'll have done by the end of the first chapter. You'll meet DOM manipulation with JavaScript and work with event listeners, which will give you a good idea on how JavaScript works with HTML elements of your pages. You'll work with images and text to build a Meme creator. While developing this app, you will learn about the Canvas element, used for drawing graphics. You will also learn about ES6 (ECMAScript) Classes, and be introduced to layouts using the CSS3 flexbox. You will then build a weather application, which will show you different methods of performing AJAX requests and working with dynamic, external data. You'll also develop a responsive Event Registration form with powerful form validation which allows users to register for your upcoming event and use charts and graphics to display registration data. WebRTC enables real-time communication in a web browser. You'll learn how to use that as well, when you build a real-time video-call and chat application later in the book. Towards the end of the book, you will meet React, Facebook's JavaScript library for building user interfaces. You'll simply throw together a blog with React, and get the sense of why this kind of JavaScript framework is used for building large scale applications. To make your blog more maintainable and scalable, you'll be using Redux to manage data across the React components.

JavaScript Concurrency
by Adam BoduchBuild better software with concurrent JavaScript programming, and unlock a more efficient and forward thinking approach to web development About This Book * Apply the core principles of concurrency to both browser and server side development * Explore the latest tools and techniques at the forefront of concurrent programming, including JavaScript promises, web workers, and generators * Learn how concurrent and parallel programming can help you tackle the challenges of fast, data heavy web development Who This Book Is For JavaScript Concurrency is written for any JavaScript developer who wants to learn how to write more efficient, powerful, and maintainable applications that utilize the latest developments in the JavaScript language. All aspects of concurrent, asynchronous, and parallel programming are covered from first principles and by the end of the book you'll be able to create a fully-worked application that leverages all the topics covered in the book. What You Will Learn * Understand exactly how JavaScript works in a web browser environment, and how these mechanisms power our event-driven JavaScript code * Use promises to turn complex synchronization scenarios into readable and maintainable values * Compute values lazily and avoid unnecessary memory allocations using generators. * Write concurrent code that doesn't feel like concurrent code by abstracting away boilerplate chores * Leverage true hardware parallelism with web workers to get a better performance * Get to grips with the NodeJS model of concurrency and learn why it's good for I/O-intensive web applications In Detail Concurrent programming may sound abstract and complex, but it helps to deliver a better user experience. With single threaded JavaScript, applications lack dynamism. This means that when JavaScript code is running, nothing else can happen. The DOM can't update, which means the UI freezes. In a world where users expect speed and responsiveness - in all senses of the word - this is something no developer can afford. Fortunately, JavaScript has evolved to adopt concurrent capabilities - one of the reasons why it is still at the forefront of modern web development. This book helps you dive into concurrent JavaScript, and demonstrates how to apply its core principles and key techniques and tools to a range of complex development challenges. Built around the three core principles of concurrency - parallelism, synchronization, and conservation - you'll learn everything you need to unlock a more efficient and dynamic JavaScript, to lay the foundations of even better user experiences. Throughout the book you'll learn how to put these principles into action by using a range of development approaches. Covering everything from JavaScript promises, web workers, generators and functional programming techniques, everything you learn will have a real impact on the performance of your applications. You'll also learn how to move between client and server, for a more frictionless and fully realized approach to development. With further guidance on concurrent programming with Node.js, JavaScript Concurrency is committed to making you a better web developer. The best developers know that great design is about more than the UI - with concurrency, you can be confident every your project will be expertly designed to guarantee its dynamism and power. Style and approach Beginning with the fundamentals of concurrency and how they apply to JavaScript development, the book then takes you through the relevant constructs that will help you implement concurrent code. You'll learn how even the most abstract and theoretical aspects of concurrent programming help you solve real world challenges, with clear and practical demonstrations that show you how concurrent JavaScript will make you a better developer.
