Lo-Dash Essentials walks you through the Lo-Dash utility library, which promises consistency and performance in JavaScript development. This book looks into the most common functions and the various contexts in which theyre used. Youll first start with object types and their properties, then youll dive into larger development patterns, such as MapReduce, and how to chain functionality together. Following this, youll learn how to make suitable builds for various environments, and discover how high-level patterns complement one another and how they lead to reusable building blocks for applications. Finally, you will gain some practical exposure to Lo-Dash by working alongside other libraries, and learn some useful techniques for improving performance.

Preface

At times, JavaScript can be a frustrating programming language to work with. Just when you think you have it entirely figured out, performance or cross-browser issues reveal themselves in the worst possible way. Lo-Dash is just one of many libraries that aim to help JavaScript programmers write code that's elegant, efficient, and portable. Underscore.js introduced a better way to perform functional programming with JavaScript. Lo-Dash is a continuation of this effort, and throughout this book, we'll see what sets Lo-Dash apart from other libraries out there, including Underscore.

At its heart, JavaScript is a functional language, but not necessarily a pure functional languageyou can modify variables and introduce side effects. However, functions are first-class citizens and you can do a lot with them. Lo-Dash embraces this idea and gives programmers all the tools they need to write functional code that's readable and maintainable. All the cool things you can do with higher-order functions in other languages are possible with Lo-Dash as well.

It's not just the low-level utilities and performance gains that Lo-Dash delivers, though these are always welcome; it's also the enhanced programming model and the ideas that Lo-Dash borrows from other languages such as functional and applicative programming. These are imparted to JavaScript applications as a coherent API. Underscore got the ball rolling, and Lo-Dash further enhances these ideas, albeit using different design and implementation strategies.
