and did you learn anything new?
just wondering
Learning JS is very different from other languages in that there's greater amounts of misinformation (lots of people know it, but prefer to use it as little as possible), and it changes faster. For example, in 2015:
- you won't find any Python new articles that tell you to use Python 1's 'strings' module
- You'll still see things like <script> tag soup, 'JS isn't object oriented', globals and patchable-ES3-isms in new JS articles.
Kyle Simpson is a well known JS speaker and O Reilly author - his books are a great source of current best practice.
