Survive Programming: A RoadMap to ES6
Survive Programming: A RoadMap to ES6
The Latest Version of JavaScript
About the Book
Learn the latest syntax in JavaScript, aka EcmaScript 6 (ES6) for short. This book is a roadmap to help you learn all the important new features quickly and easily. We'll cover all the good parts including: variables, functions, object oriented programming with new class syntax, synchronous vs asynchronous programming, callback functions, promises, iterators, generators, fetch API, maps, sets, JavaScript modules, transpilers and more!
Stop wasting your time using old syntax and struggling to make outdated code work with modern APIs and architecture. Enhance your skill set, enable yourself to write programs that are more precise, modern, easier to understand and efficient at executing tasks you define. It's time to update! Are you ready to go to the next level?
