Pure JavaScript, Second Edition is a substantial and focused reference for experienced Web developers. This book begins with an accelerated introduction to the newest features of JavaScript so that experienced Web developers can quickly understand the concepts of JavaScript and begin developing their own JavaScript solutions immediately. Pure JavaScript, Second Edition contains concise descriptions of JavaScript forms, cookies, windows, and layers. Beyond the brief descriptions and short syntax snippets found in most references, this book also provides real-life, well-commented JavaScript examples for each documented object, property, method, and event handler. This not only helps the reader's understanding of the syntax, but also provides a contextual aid in determining how and why a specific object or method may be used. It also includes a special reference section dedicated to server-side JavaScript, coverage of JScript and Active Scripting, and a complete reference to browser-supported JavaScript.

This book is to help developers understand the basics of JavaScript and the essential knowledge to build advanced JavaScript projects. This book is for programmers from all levels who wished to build web projects with pure JavaScript to an industry standard. Most people who develop using JavaScript are familiar with using toolkits/frameworks/plugins such as JQuery and cannot code without these libraries. It is important to know pure JavaScript to be able to modify or customise code to suit your needs.

Includes coverage of JavaScript 1.4, this work offers a JavaScript desktop reference for experienced programmers, including an accelerated introduction to JavaScript and detailed professional scripting techniques.

Are you someone who wants to start coding in JavaScript, or who wants to refresh their knowledge? After reading this e-book, you’ll be able to create your own simple, tangible solutions using JavaScript. Topics included: - Variables and data types in JavaScript - Snippets and control structures - While loops and for loops - JavaScript arrays - JavaScript objects and functions - JavaScript methods & more

Master JavaScript with this comprehensive guide covering everything from basics to advanced programming topics like asynchronous programming, Node.js, and server-side development. Key Features Complete coverage of JavaScript from basics to advanced features Hands-on web development and server-side programming with Node.js Specific focus on practical examples and asynchronous programming Book DescriptionThis book provides a comprehensive introduction to JavaScript and web development, starting with the basics of programming and progressing through advanced topics. The initial chapters introduce JavaScript, exploring its history, its relationship with HTML and CSS, and how to integrate it into web pages. Readers will learn to create and manipulate variables, data types, and operators while controlling the flow of programs using loops and functions. As the book advances, it covers more complex concepts like working with objects, arrays, and strings, and introduces modern web APIs, such as Ajax, Fetch API, and browser storage methods. Additional chapters focus on object-oriented and functional programming, emphasizing JavaScript’s versatile capabilities. Later sections explore asynchronous programming, server-based applications with Node.js, and creating mobile and desktop applications using frameworks like React Native and Electron. There is also a focus on controlling microcontrollers using JavaScript, automating tasks with Grunt and Gulp, and managing source code through Git, providing a full-stack development approach with JavaScript at its core.What you will learn Understand JavaScript basics Build dynamic web pages Use asynchronous programming Master object-oriented programming Develop server-side applications Create mobile and desktop apps Who this book is for This book is ideal for aspiring web developers, software engineers, and professionals looking to deepen their JavaScript knowledge. Basic programming knowledge is helpful, but the guide is also suitable for beginners eager to learn JavaScript and its practical applications.

Apply functional programming techniques to write testable terser code for frontend and backend development with improved clarity, concurrency, and performance Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook Key Features Apply functional programming concepts and techniques to everyday JavaScript or TypeScript programming Master functional programming in JavaScript and TypeScript to solve real-world development problems Apply functional programming to get better testable programs with higher modularity and reusability Book Description Functional programming is a programming paradigm that uses functions for developing software. This book is filled with examples that enable you to leverage the latest JavaScript and TypeScript versions to produce modern and clean code, as well as teach you to how apply functional programming techniques to develop more efficient algorithms, write more concise code, and simplify unit testing. This book provides comprehensive coverage of the major topics in functional programming to produce shorter, clearer, and testable programs. You'll begin by getting to grips with writing and testing pure functions, reducing side effects, as well as other key features to make your applications functional in nature. The book specifically explores techniques to simplify coding, apply recursion, perform high-level coding, learn ways to achieve immutability, implement design patterns, and work with data types. By the end of this book, you'll have developed the practical programming skills needed to confidently enhance your applications by adding functional programming to wherever it's most suitable. What you will learn Understand when to use functional programming versus classic object-oriented programming Use declarative coding instead of imperative coding for clearer, more understandable code Know how to avoid side effects and create more reliable code with closures and immutable data Use recursion to help design and implement more understandable solutions to complex problems Define functional programing data types with or without TypeScript, add type checking, and implement immutability Apply advanced containers to get better structures to tackle errors and implement async programming Who this book is for If you are a JavaScript or TypeScript developer looking to enhance your programming skills, then this book is for you. The book applies to both frontend developers working with frameworks such as React, Vue, or Angular as well as backend developers using Node.js or Deno.
