LEARNING

• Understand type coercion

• Get a good understaning of Functions, Scope and Hoisting

  • Understand exactly how non-primitive types are passed to functions as arguments.

  • Here are some really good resources explaining scope and hoisting:

    • JavaScript Visualized: Hoisting, By Lydia Hallie
    • JavaScript Visualized: Scope (Chain), By Lydia Hallie
    • Scope in JavaScript - HTTP 203
• Understand how undefined and null behave and how they differ.
• Understand why 0.1 + 0.2 !== 0.3 evaluates to true and 0.1 + 0.2 === 0.3 evaluates to false.
  • This means that you will also understand why this is not a JavaScript thing, but something related to the IEEE-754 standard which every computer programmer should be familiar with. You can start here.
• Study Objects,
  • Prototypal Inheritance and OOP
  • OLOO: Objects Linked to Other Objects
  • JavaScript Visualized: Prototypal Inheritance
  • Marcus Phillips: Secrets and Lies about JavaScript classes (Low-quality video but definitely worth watching)
• Make sure to understand callbacks, IIFEs and asynchronicity as they are some of the most commonly encountered and crucial concepts in JS
  • Callbacks in JavaScript:
    • Callbacks in JavaScript
    • Callback function (MDN)
    • JavaScript: What the heck is a Callback?
  • Immediately Invoked Function Expression (IIFEs):
    • IIFE (MDN)
    • Immediately Invoked Function Expression - Beau teaches JavaScript
    • The IIFE Pattern (Video by Kyle Simpson)
  • Asynchronous Programming in JavaScript:
    • Asynchronous Programming (Excellent post)
    • JavaScript Visualized: Promises & Async/Await (Excellent post)

• Study the source code of popular libraries: jQuery, underscore, etc.

  Here are 2 great videos on the subject by Paul Irish:

  • 10 Things I Learned from the jQuery Source
  • 11 More Things I Learned from the jQuery Source
• Read (or preferably buy) every single book of the excellent You Don’t Know JS series by Kyle simpson [MUST READ]
• Watch every video by Douglas Crockford.
• Take the full course ‘JavaScript The Good Parts’ by Douglas Crockford on Front End Masters
• Get a really good understanding of closures and this
  • JavaScript Closures are Super Simple! (YouTube Video: 16 min)
  • JavaScript the Hard Parts: Closures, Scope, and Execution Context (Student Approved Resource)
  • Understanding Functions and ‘this’ By Bryan Hughes

• Study performance and code optimization

  Here is a good article by Nicholas Zakas:

  • 10 Javascript Performance Boosting Tips
  • The cost of JavaScript in 2019 By Addy Osmani
• Check every tip on the A Drip of JavaScript list and subscribe to it.

• Check the (archived version) of an old but good resource: JavaScript Garden.

  JavaScript Garden is a growing collection of documentation about the most quirky parts of the JavaScript programming language. It gives advice to avoid common mistakes and subtle bugs, as well as performance issues and bad practices, that non-expert JavaScript programmers may encounter on their endeavours into the depths of the language.

• Read some books. You can find some great books for JS on the BOOKS section of this list.

• Learn how to debug your JS code. Here are some good links as a starting point:

  • Debugging JavaScript
  • Chrome DevTools Command Line API Reference

• Study general Software Design Patterns along with JavaScript-specific Patterns and Anti-Patterns:

  • Learning JavaScript Design Patterns, Addy Osmani
  • Javascript Patterns, moderated by Shi Chuan
  • Frontend architecture: Decoupling apps from frameworks (DevFest 2019)

• Understand the Single Threaded Process & Event Loop.

  • Concurrency model and Event Loop, MDN
  • The JavaScript Event Loop: Explained, By Erin Swenson-Healey
  • Understanding the node.js event loop, by Mixu
  • Introduction to Javascript Processes, by *Nico Valencia *
  • How JavaScript Timers Work, By John Resig
  • Philip Roberts: Help, I’m stuck in an event-loop: How JavaScript actually works
• Study some of the modern APIs: WebRTC, File API, Blob API, etc.
• Master Regular Expressions.
• Get in the habit of testing. (Crucial!). QUnit is a good starting point.

• Subscribe to these great YouTube channels and watch every video you can:

  • CascadiaJS
  • JSConf
• Learn some framework or library like jQuery, React, Angular, Vue.JS, SVELTE, Backbone.JS, underscore, AngularJS, Ember, Knockout.JS, etc.
• Try building a ToDo App using one of these libraries
• Get to know Node.JS and start building apps.
  • Try running server-side JS code usign Node.JS on Runnable.com
  • Install Node.JS locally and start experimenting.
• Subscribe to Newsletters and stay up to date with JS and Node. (See section 3.8 NEWSLETTERS)
• Become familiar with a Task Manager like Grunt or Gulp and/or learn how to use npm scripts.
• Learn how to use Module Bundlers like WebPack, Parcel, Browserify and other.
• Start building cross-platform Desktop Applications using HTML/CSS/JavaScript in Electron.JS or Node-Webkit.
• Follow some of the masters on Twitter. (See section 3.6 of the RESOURCES section)
• Code using a Style Guide.
• And, of course, you definitely need to learn TypeScript!

2. SUGGESTED CODING RULES AND BEST PRACTICES

• Always use let or const when declaring variables. Avoid using var.
• Code using "use strict"
• If you are using VSCode Editor add the //@ts-check comment at the top of your code for an extra layer of checks via TypeScript Linter
• Always use semicolons. // Not using semicolons??? Lonely Island uses them everyday
  • Here’s a little bit of advice for the semicolon haters (by Ben Alman)
• Prefer using === over ==
• Always use curly braces
• Comment your code
• Avoid/Reduce global variables
• Avoid using with()
• Avoid using eval()
• Pass functions instead of strings to setTimeout or setInterval, as this triggers eval() internally.
• Use JSHint / JSLint
  • If you are using VSCode you can add the following comment at the top of your code to enable type checking: //@ts-check (See screenshot)
  • Inline lint highlighting for the Sublime Text 2 editor
  • Interactive code linting framework for Sublime Text 3
• Study and apply Software Principles such as DRY, SOLID, KISS, etc.
