JavaScript Design Patterns

By: Hugo Di Francesco

Overview of this book

Unlock the potential of JavaScript design patterns, the foundation for development teams seeking structured and reusable solutions to common software development challenges in this guide to improving code maintainability, scalability, and performance. Discover how these patterns equip businesses with cleaner and more maintainable code, promote team collaboration, reduce errors, and save time and costs. This book provides a comprehensive view of design patterns in modern (ES6+) JavaScript with real-world examples of their deployment in professional settings. You’ll start by learning how to use creational, structural, and behavioral design patterns in idiomatic JavaScript, and then shift focus to the architecture and UI patterns. Here, you’ll learn how to apply patterns for libraries such as React and extend them further to general web frontend and micro frontend approaches. The last section of the book introduces and illustrates sets of performance and security patterns, including messaging and events, asset and JavaScript loading strategies, and asynchronous programming performance patterns. Throughout the book, examples featuring React and Next.js, in addition to JavaScript and Web API examples, will help you choose and implement proven design patterns across diverse web ecosystems, transforming the way you approach development.

Part 1:Design Patterns

In this part, you will get an overview of design patterns and how they can be implemented effectively in modern JavaScript. You will learn how and when to implement creational, structural, and behavioral design patterns in the “classical” object-oriented way and how modern JavaScript features can be used to make this implementation more idiomatic to the language. Finally, you’ll see real-world examples of design patterns being applied in the JavaScript ecosystem, thereby learning how to recognize them.

This part has the following chapters:

  • Chapter 1, Working with Creational Design Patterns
  • Chapter 2, Implementing Structural Design Patterns
  • Chapter 3, Leveraging Behavioral Design Patterns
