It can be difficult for developers familiar with Java and other languages to make the transition to modern jаvascript. If you simply want to be productive with jаvascript as it exists today, then you don't want to relive history with books or courses that teach older jаvascript versions, or that assume familiarity with those older versions and focus on recently introduced features.
This
course assumes that you are a competent programmer who understands branches and loops, functions, data structures, and the basics of object-oriented programming. You will get up to speed with modern jаvascript in the shortest possible time.
Description
Modern jаvascript for the Impatient LiveLessons focuses on how to be productive with jаvascript as it exists today. After reviewing the fundamentals of values, variables, and control flow, the video thoroughly covers functions, objects, and classes. The standard library and the most commonly used tools are also covered, as well as key topics related to asynchronous programming, internationalization, and modules.

Cay S. Horstmann is a professor of computer science at San Jose State University and a Java Champion. He is also the author of Core Java, Volume II—Fundamentals, Eleventh Edition (2019); Core Java, Volume I—Fundamentals, Eleventh Edition (2018); Core Java SE 9 for the Impatient, Second Edition (2018); Java SE 8 for the Really Impatient (2014); and Scala for the Impatient (2012). He has written more than a dozen other books for professional programmers and computer science students.
What You Will Learn
After starting with the basics—jаvascript values, variables, and types, and a quick overview of expressions and the various type of flow control statements—Horstmann shows viewers how to implement functions that consume and produce other functions and how to use closures to implement a form of classes before moving on to more advanced topics including
Object-oriented programming with modern jаvascript (classes and inheritance and how these are implemented with prototypes)
The standard library (numbers and dates, strings and regular expressions, as well as arrays and collections.)
Metaprogramming, iterators, and generators (a powerful mechanism to bridge between linear and event-driven control flow)
How to use proxies to intercept property access and method invocations
How to use symbols for customizing behavior
How to use the internationalization API to adapt your applications to users around the world
How to structure complex applications with modules
Who Should Take This Course
Experienced developers looking to get up to speed quickly and be productive with modern jаvascript, without wasting time on obsolete features.
Course Requirements
Assumes familiarity with basic programming concepts and some experience using Java or similar languages. No previous experience with jаvascript is required.
