Modernizing JavaScript
Jonathan Bartlett · Apress eBooks · 2022
Before we get started in some of the details about how applications in the real world are written, I wanted to take a moment and introduce you to some modern features of JavaScript which are commonly used in modern applications. Note that the goal of this book is not to provide a comprehensive introduction to JavaScript itself but rather to use JavaScript as a jumping point for learning programming in general. Nonetheless, I wanted to take some time and introduce a few modernizations of JavaScript that have been introduced over the years which you are likely to run into if you read JavaScript code. None of these are radical departures, but they do make JavaScript a little easier to read and write.
