Overview of this book

If you are looking for a programming language to develop flexible and efficient applications, JavaScript is an obvious choice. Advanced JavaScript is a hands-on guide that takes you through JavaScript and its many features, one step at a time. You'll begin by learning how to use the new JavaScript syntax in ES6, and then work through the many other features that modern JavaScript has to offer. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll use asynchronous programming with callbacks and promises, handle browser events, and perform Document Object Model (DOM) manipulation. You'll also explore various methods of testing JavaScript projects. In the concluding chapters, you'll discover functional programming and learn to use it to build your apps. With this book as your guide, you'll also be able to develop APIs using Node.js and Express, create front-ends using React/Redux, and build mobile apps using React/Expo. By the end of Advanced JavaScript, you will have explored the features and benefits of JavaScript to build small applications.

Summary


Web development revolves around the Document Object Model and the Event object. JavaScript is built to quickly and efficiently interact with the DOM and DOM events to provide us with powerful and interactive web pages. In the first topic of this chapter, we covered the DOM tree and discussed the ways to navigate and manipulate the DOM. In the second topic of this chapter, we discussed the JavaScript Event object, showed how to interact with DOM events, and demonstrated how to set up handlers to catch events. In the final topic of this chapter, we discussed the jQuery module. We discussed the jQuery object and jQuery selector, and showed how to use jQuery for DOM manipulation and event handling. With the topics learned in this chapter, you should be prepared to begin writing your own powerful and interactive web pages.

In the next chapter, you will analyze the benefit of tests and build code testing environments.
