JavaScript is no longer to be feared or loathed - the worlds most popular and ubiquitous language has evolved into a respectable language. Whether youre writing frontend applications or server side code, the phenomenal features from ES6 and beyond - like the rest operator, generators, destructuring, object literals, arrow functions, modern classes, promises, async, and metaprogramming capabilities - will get you excited and eager to program with JavaScript. Youve found the right book to get started quickly and dive deep into the essence of modern JavaScript. Learn practical tips to apply the elegant parts of the language and the gotchas to avoid.
JavaScript is a black swan that no one, including the author of the language, thought would become a popular and ubiquitous language. Not long ago, it was the most hated and feared language you could use to program the web. JavaScript ES6 and beyond has gone through a significant makeover. Troublesome features have been replaced with better, elegant, more reliable alternatives. This book includes many practical examples and exercises to help you learn in depth. It will not bore you with idiosyncrasies and arcane details intended for bad interview questions. Instead, it takes you into key features that you can readily use in your day-to-day projects.
Whether you program the frontend or the server side, you can now write concise, elegant, and expressive JavaScript with newer features like default parameters, template literals, rest and spread operators, destructuring, arrow functions, and generators. Take it up a notch with features like infinite series, promises, async, and metaprogramming to create flexible, powerful, and extensible libraries. While the evolved features of the language will draw you in, the hundreds of examples in this book will pin the concepts down, for you to use on your projects. Take command of modern JavaScript and unlock your potential to create powerful applications.
What You Need:
To try out the examples in the book you will need a computer with Node.js, a text editor, and a browser like Chrome installed in it.

JavaScript used to only have a few good parts. Now most of the parts are good. Although legacy features still remain, new features provided in the ES6/7/8 standards can help you write safer, simpler, and more concise codebut only if you know about them. In this book, Venkat shows everyone, from beginners to experts, how to use the modern language that JavaScript has become.

Acknowledgments
This book project was possible largely because of the support, help, time, and generosity of many. My sincere thanks to everyone who gave his or her knowledge, time, and effort to help me improve this book, and along the way helped me to learn and improve as well.
Special thanks toScott Davis,Suresh Iyer,Ben Rady,Brian Sam-Bodden,Nathaniel Schutta,Stefan Turalski,andJim R. Wilsonfor their reviews. These kind developers and experts reviewed the book for technical correctness, identified gaps in my writing, and suggested ways to improve. Any errors that remain in the book are my own.
The alpha geeks who bought the beta of this book placed their trust in me and I am very thankful for that. Thanks to the readers who provided feedback through the books website, and to early readersRichard L. Brownrigg,George S. Cowan,Brett DiFrischia,Carsten Hess,Richard Hoggart,and Felipe Sultanifor taking the time to make this book better.
I had the luxury of teasing out many of the topics presented in this book at conference presentations, in front of live audiences. The No Fluff Just Stuff (NFJS) conference series, in particular, generously gave me the platform to present different topics related to this book for a couple of years before I started writing. Many thanks to Jay Zimmerman, the director of NFJS, for his continued support.
Writing a book has ups and downs, and the editor can make or break the project. In spite of various challenges along the way, Jackie Carter tirelessly worked on this book to get it in its current shape. I thank her for the positive feedback when she found the writing was good and her guidance in places where improvements were needed.
Thanks to Andy Hunt and the entire Pragmatic Bookshelf team, many who work behind the scenes, for taking on this book project and their continued effort to get it to fruition.
Knowing very well that asking, Did the code you were trying last night work? will start a long rant and a demo, a tireless soul kept asking that question and continued to motivate me. Without her help, none of this would have been possible or even matterthank you, Kavitha. Also thanks to my sons Karthik and Krupa for their understanding when Dad had to hide to work on the book.
