Java Script is a high-level, dynamic, untyped, lightweight, and interpreted programming language. Along with HTML and CSS, it is one of the three essential technologies of World Wide Web content production, and is an open source and cross-platform technology. The majority of websites employ Java Script, and it is well supported by all modern web browsers without plugins. However, the Java Script landscape has changed dramatically in recent years, and you need to adapt to the new world of Java Script that people now expect. Mastering modern Java Script techniques and the toolchain are essential to develop web-scale applications.

Mastering Java Script will be your companion as you master Java Script and build innovative web applications. To begin with, you will get familiarized with the language constructs and how to make code easy to organize. You will gain a concrete understanding of variable scoping, loops, and best practices on using types and data structures, as well as the coding style and recommended code organization patterns in Java Script. The book will also teach you how to use arrays and objects as data structures. You will graduate from intermediate-level skills to advanced techniques as you come to understand crucial language concepts and design principles. You will learn about modern libraries and tools so you can write better code.

By the end of the book, you will understand how reactive Java Script is going to be the new paradigm.

This is a comprehensive guide with a clear focus on practical use cases and patterns. Each chapter consists of best practices, useful advice, and a bunch of easy-to-follow examples that will build up your skills as you advance through the book.
