Overview of this book

JavaScript is an object-oriented programming language that is used for website development. Web pages developed today currently follow a paradigm that has three clearly distinguishable parts: content (HTML), presentation (CSS), and behavior (JavaScript). JavaScript is one important pillar in this paradigm, and is responsible for the running of the web pages. This book will take your JavaScript skills to a new level of sophistication and get you prepared for your journey through professional web development. Updated for ES6, this book covers everything you will need to unleash the power of object-oriented programming in JavaScript while building professional web applications. The book begins with the basics of object-oriented programming in JavaScript and then gradually progresses to cover functions, objects, and prototypes, and how these concepts can be used to make your programs cleaner, more maintainable, faster, and compatible with other programs/libraries. By the end of the book, you will have learned how to incorporate object-oriented programming in your web development workflow to build professional JavaScript applications.

Chapter 13. Reactive Programming and React

Along with ES6, several new ideas are emerging. These are powerful ideas and can help you build powerful systems with more streamlined code and design. In this chapter, we will introduce you to two such ideas-reactive programming and react. Although they sound similar, they are very different. This chapter does not go into practical details of these ideas but gives you necessary information to become aware of what these ideas are capable of. With that information, you can start incorporating these ideas and frameworks into your projects. We will discuss the basic idea of reactive programming and take a bit more detailed look at react.
