JavaScript: The Definitive Guide: Master the World’s Most-Used Programming Language (pdf)

Description

This book is for programmers who want to learn JavaScript and for web developers who want to take their understanding and mastery to the next level. It begins by explaining the JavaScript language itself, in detail, from the bottom up. It then builds on that foundation to cover the web platform and Node.js.

Topics include:

• Types, values, variables, expressions, operators, statements, objects, and arrays
• Functions, classes, modules, iterators, generators, Promises, and async/await
• JavaScript’s standard library: data structures, regular expressions, JSON, i18n, etc.
• The web platform: documents, components, graphics, networking, storage, and threads
• Node.js: buffers, files, streams, threads, child processes, web clients, and web servers
• Tools and language extensions that professional JavaScript developers rely on.
