JavaScript is a high-level, dynamic, untyped, lightweight, and interpreted programming language. Mastering modern JavaScript techniques and the toolchain are essential to develop web-scale applications. This Learning Path will upgrade your skills to ES2015, and you will get to introduce yourself to popular frameworks like React and Angular 2. In the first module, you will get familiar 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 JavaScript. By the end of the module, you will understand how reactive JavaScript is going to be the new paradigm.Over the course of the next module, you will explore how design patterns can help you improve and organize your JavaScript code. You’ll get to grips with creational, structural, and behavioral patterns and get a deeper look at patterns used in functional programming, as well as model view patterns and patterns to build web applications. By the end of the module, you'll be saved of a lot of trial and error and developmental headaches, and you will be on the road to becoming a JavaScript expert.In the last leg of this course, you will shift your focus to network programming concepts as you build a real-time web application with websockets. Along the way, you’ll explore how the power of JavaScript can be increased multi-fold with high performance techniques. By the end of this module, you’ll be a skilled JavaScript developer with a solid knowledge of the latest JavaScript techniques, tools, and architecture to build modern web apps.This Learning Path combines some of the best that Packt has to offer in one complete, curated package.

JavaScript: Functional Programming for JavaScript Developers. Functional Programming for JavaScript Developers

Ved Antani, Simon Timms, Dan Mantyla

JavaScript is a high-level, dynamic, untyped, lightweight, and interpreted programming language and functional programming is a style that emphasizes and enables smarter code that minimizes complexity and increases modularity. It's a way of writing cleaner code through clever ways of mutating, combining, and using functions. And JavaScript provides an excellent medium for this approach. By learning how to expose JavaScript's true identity as a functional language, we can implement web apps that are more powerful, easier to maintain and more reliable.The java script: Functional Programming for JavaScript Developers course will take you on a journey to show how functional programming when combined with other techniques makes JavaScript programming more efficient.The first module Mastering JavaScript, stress on practical aspects of Javascript development like—Functions and Closures, Runtime debugging techniques, project layout, events and DOM processing, build tools, Object-oriented patterns, isomorphism—everything that a modern Javascript project would need.The second module, Mastering JavaScript Design Patterns - Second Edition, will explore how design patterns can help you improve and organize your JavaScript code. You’ll get to grips with creational, structural, and behavioral patterns as you discover how to put them to work in different scenarios. This updated edition will also delve into reactive design patterns and microservices as they are a growing phenomenon in the world of web development. It will also show you some advanced patterns, including dependency injection and live post processing.The third module, Functional Programming in JavaScript, will help you to write real-world applications by utilizing a wide range of functional techniques and styles. It explores the core concepts of functional programming common to all functional languages, with examples of their use in JavaScript.

JavaScript i wzorce projektowe. Programowanie dla zaawansowanych. Wydanie II

Simon Timms

JavaScript przez mnóstwo lat był wykorzystywany głównie jako technika uzupełniania podstawowej funkcjonalności stron internetowych. Dziś to się zmienia: JavaScript należy do najpopularniejszych języków i jest wykorzystywany na wiele sposobów. Wzorce projektowe to jedna z ciekawszych możliwości: dzięki nim programista bierze pod uwagę sprawdzone rozwiązania. Niniejsza książka jest przeznaczona dla osób używających JavaScriptu, które chcą nauczyć się programowania obiektowego w tym języku, a także dobrze poznać standard ECMAScript 2015. Przedstawiono tu wzorce kreacyjne, strukturalne i operacyjne oraz metody ich stosowania. Przeanalizowano wzorce widoku modelu i wzorce do budowy aplikacji internetowych. Obszernie omówiono mikrousługi, a także wzorce do testowania kodu za pomocą atrap obiektów i środowisk atrap obiektów oraz techniki monkey patching. Opisano też kilka wzorców zaawansowanych, w tym wzorzec wprowadzania zależności i przetwarzania końcowego w czasie rzeczywistym. Najważniejsze zagadnienia omówione w książce: czym są wzorce projektowe i jak należy organizować kod poszczególne grupy wzorców projektowych i ich zastosowanie programowanie funkcyjne i reaktywne programowanie aspektowe inne narzędzia zgodne ze standardem ECMAScript 2015/2016 Wzorce projektowe — niezbędne w przyborniku programisty! Simon Timms — jest głównym projektantem oprogramowania w firmie Clear-Measure w Austin, w Teksasie. Jest ekspertem w dziedzinie technologii serwerowych .NET, interesuje się wizualizacjami i przetwarzaniem w chmurze. Angażuje się w rozwijanie metodyki DevOps. Często wypowiada się na jej temat w ramach grupy Calgary.Net, której jest przewodniczącym.
