It is also for experienced pro­gram­mers who are looking to understand the workings of another lan­guage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is not for beginners. I hope to someday write a book for beginners. This is not that book. This is not a light book. If you skim it, you will likely get nothing from of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is not about JavaScript engines or virtual machines. It is about the lan­guage itself and the things every pro­gram­mer should know about it. This book is a radical reappraisal of Java­Script, how it works, how it could be made better, and how it can be better used. It is about how to think about Java­Script and how to think \u003cem\u003ein\u003c\/em\u003e Java­Script. I am going to pretend that the current version of the lan­guage is the only version. I am not going to waste your time by showing how things worked in ES1 or ES3 or ES5. That does not matter. The focus is on how Java­Script works for us now.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is not comprehensive. There are large, complex chunks of the lan­guage that will be dismissed without a word. If I fail to mention your most favorite fea­ture, that is most likely because that fea­ture is crap. I will not be paying much attention to syntax. I am assuming that you already know how to write an if statement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Not Avail","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45141949710487,"sku":"9781949815009","price":2830.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781949815009.webp?v=1767104475","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/how-javascript-works-9781949815009","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
