About the Books
A Better Way To Learn JavaScript
Save Yourself From 1000 Hours of Trial and Error Experiences!
This book is based on a tried and tested learning methodology.
This learning methodology will give you the best possible results in the shortest amount of time!
Along the way, you'll learn how to build truly useful apps in JavaScript, which will speed up your workflow and help you with your daily tasks.
A better way to learn JavaScript - Built-in Objects
Save Yourself From Another 1000 Hours of Trial and Error Experiences!
This book is a second in the series of 5 books on JavaScript.
In Book 1 we learned a lot about JavaScript. In Book 2, we "backfill" the wholes in our knowledge by having a detailed, in-depth look at all the built-in objects in JavaScript.
Understanding all the available methods and properties on built-in objects will do wonders for our confidence as JS developers.
Once you read this book, you can rest assured that whatever JS code comes your way, you'll know where it's coming from and how it works.
Books 1 and 2 are a solid foundation for working with some real-life code, with a lot of code snippets, and specific use cases. This is what Book 3 is about.
However, at the end of Book 2, we'll have a large section with all the code snippets extracted from both Books 1 and 2 (currently at about 90 code snippets, but as this book gets updated, by the end it should have at least 300 code snippets).
Both Books 1 and 2 aim to "draw the map of JavaScript", and are indeed a Better Way to Learn JS, because they are like a story about JavaScript that unwinds right before you.

A better way to learn JavaScript - Useful Snippets
Save Yet Another 1000 Hours Exploring JavaScript
This book is the third in my 5-book series on JavaScript.
In Book 1 we learned about JS basics, and we got a nice foundation in the language.
In Book 2, we covered all the built-in objects in depth.
However, there is something lacking from both books: some more practical, simple examples, gotchas, tips and tricks.
This is what Book 3 is aiming at. We will go through various examples dealing with randomness, strings, numbers, DOM manipulation, and so on, all in the format of simple exercises, down-to-earth examples, with a lot of additional explanation so that the examples really make sense.
Currently, there are about 70 separate useful snippets. But this book is still in progress. By the time it's finished, there are going to be at least 300 snippets in this book.
If we take into account the first two books, by the time all three books are finished, we will be close to about 900 exercises to master your JavaScript knowledge.
My goal is to make a very comprehensive overview of the JavaScript language, spread over these 5 in-depth books, rich with examples and exercises.

A better way to learn JavaScript - Building Mini Apps
Let's build some mini apps in JavaScript
This book is the fourth in my 5-book series on JavaScript.
In Book 1, we learned about JS basics, with an in-depth coverage of foundations.
In Book 2, we examined all the built-in objects in depth, including their properties, methods, and constructors.
In Book 3, we went through a bunch of code snippets, simple "sub-programs" that dealt with a specific issue, such as emulating a pair of dice, or capitalizing each first letter in a sentence.
In this book, Building Mini Apps, we're continuing from simple snippets from Book 3, and we're using all the things we've learned so far to build some specific "mini apps": standalone solutions to various issues.
A Better Way To Learn JavaScript - Advanced JS
Let's tackle some advanced JavaScript concepts.
This is the fifth book in this 5-book book series.
