Whats the best approach for developing an application with JavaScript? This book helps you answer that question with numerous JavaScript coding patterns and best practices. If youre an experienced developer looking to solve problems related to objects, functions, inheritance, and other language-specific categories, the abstractions and code templates in this guide are ideal-whether youre using JavaScript to write a client-side, server-side, or desktop application. Written by JavaScript expert Stoyan Stefanov-Senior Yahoo! Technical and architect of YSlow 2.0, the web page performance optimization tool- JavaScript Patterns includes practical advice for implementing each pattern discussed, along with several hands-on examples. Youll also learn about anti-patterns: common programming approaches that cause more problems than they solve. Explore useful habits for writing high-quality JavaScript code, such as avoiding globals, using single var declarations, and more Learn why literal notation patterns are simpler alternatives to constructor functions Discover different ways to define a function in JavaScript Create objects that go beyond the basic patterns of using object literals and constructor functions Learn the options available for code reuse and inheritance in JavaScript Study sample JavaScript approaches to common design patterns such as Singleton, Factory, Decorator, and more Examine patterns that apply specifically to the client-side browser environment.

Preface

Patterns are solutions to common problems. One step further, patterns are templates for solving categories of problems.

Patterns help you split a problem into Lego-like blocks and focus on the unique parts of the problem while abstracting out a lot of been there, done that, got the T-shirt kind of details.

Patterns also help us communicate better by simply providing a common vocabulary.

Its therefore important to identify and study patterns.

Target Audience

This book is not a beginners book; its targeted at professional developers and programmers who want to take their JavaScript skills to the next level.

Some of the basics (like loops, conditionals, and closures) are not discussed at all. If you find you need to brush up on some of those topics, refer to the list of suggested reading.

At the same time, some topics (such as object creation or hoisting) may look too basic to be in this book, but they are discussed from a patterns perspective and, in my opinion, are critical to harnessing the power of the language.

If youre looking for best practices and powerful patterns to help you write better, maintainable, robust JavaScript code, this book is for you.

Credits

Some of the patterns in the book were identified by the author, based on experience and on studies of popular JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and YUI. But most of the patterns are identified and described by the JavaScript community; therefore, this book is a result of the collective work of many developers. To not interrupt the narrative with history and credits, a list of references and suggested additional reading is given on the books companion site at http://www.jspatterns.com/book/reading/.

If Ive missed a good and original article in the list of references, please accept my apologies and contact me so I can add it to the online list at http://jspatterns.com.
