Book Description
What will you learn from this book?
The new edition of this brain-friendly guide takes you through a comprehensive journey into modern JavaScript, covering everything from core language fundamentals to today’s cutting-edge features. You’ll dive into the nuances of JavaScript types and the unparalleled flexibility of its functions. You’ll also learn how to expertly navigate classes and objects, and finally understand closures. But that’s just the beginning. You’ll also get hands-on with the browser’s document object model (DOM), engaging with JavaScript in exciting ways. You won’t just be reading—you’ll be playing games, solving puzzles, pondering mysteries, and interacting with JavaScript as never before. And you’ll write real code, lots of it, so you can start building your own applications.
What’s so special about this book?
If you’ve read a Head First book, you know what to expect: a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven’t, you’re in for a treat. With this book, you’ll learn JavaScript through a multisensory experience that engages your mind—rather than a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.
