Conquering JavaScript The Practical Handbook – Sufyan Bin Uzayr

Let’s take a minute to address two frequently asked topics before mov- ing on to the most well-known JavaScript frameworks. What Distinguishes a JavaScript Framework from a JavaScript Library? Libraries in JavaScript are collections of code created for certain use cases. For instance, the Day.js package is devoted to making use of dates in JavaScript, which may be challenging even for experienced developers.

jQuery is a well-known JavaScript library that simplifies the syntax for DOM traversal, event handling, animations, and other typical operations. On the other hand, frameworks are designed to perform various tasks and serve as the foundation of a web application. Like Angular, several frameworks design the complete site tree. In other words, they support the full application frontend. Some, like Vue.js, allow for gradual usage, allowing our application to make restricted use of the framework. For particular use cases that our framework doesn’t handle, we’ll proba- bly utilize libraries in our application.

Remember those annoying dates with Day.js? This library is not required to be used in views that exclude dates. However, regardless of the functionalities we use, if our application is created using Angular, the page template is written in Angular’s syntax. In contrast, Day.js may be called where it is necessary and not called where it is not.

Use a JavaScript Framework, But Why? Because frameworks are constructed on top of JavaScript, we can accom- plish any function a framework does using standard JavaScript. But because the hard work has already been done, why go through all that bother again? This underlines the fundamental advantage of using a JavaScript frame- work: More capability without the need for us to produce new code.

For instance, the virtual document object model is used by both React and Vue.js (DOM). Because it only updates altered HTML components, the virtual DOM is quicker at handling HTML elements. Contrarily, regular JavaScript will render the whole DOM once again regardless of the amount of the change. The Clearer Picture ◾ 213 React and Vue.js are thus quicker for websites and programs that have a lot of interactive elements. Libraries and Frameworks for JavaScript In programming, frameworks and libraries are crucial. This raises the issue, nevertheless, which is superior: JavaScript libraries or JavaScript frameworks?

Conquering JavaScript: The Practical Handbook helps the reader master the JavaScript (JS) programming language for faster and more robust develop- ment. JS is a highly popular language and is often termed as the ‘language of the web.’ In addition to the internet, JS is also being used actively in game development, mobile apps, progressive applications, and now even desktop apps. As such, it is safe to say that JS is probably the most cross- platform language currently in use, and it rises in popularity with each passing day.

This book covers the basics and moves on to advanced concepts using a hands-on approach with practical lessons and tutorials. JS programming, JS frameworks and various use-case scenarios are discussed in detail. Bridging the gap between beginner and intermediate-level JS literature, this book is a valuable resource to build robust knowledge. About the Series The Conquering JavaScript series covers a wide range of topics, pertain- ing specifically to the JavaScript programming ecosystem, such as frame- works and libraries.

Each book of this series is focused on a singular topic, and covers said topic at length, focusing especially on real-world usage and a code-oriented approach, adhering to an industry-standard coding paradigm, so as to help the learners gain practical expertise that can be useful for real-world projects. Some of the key aspects of books in this series are: • Crystal-clear text, spanning various JavaScript-related topics sorted by relevance. • Special focus on practical exercises with numerous code samples and programs. • A guided approach to JS coding with step-by-step tutorials and walkthroughs.

• Keen emphasis on the real-world utility of skills, thereby cutting the redundant and seldom-used concepts and bloatware. • A wide range of references and resources to help the readers gain the most out of the books. The Conquering JavaScript series of books assume a basic understanding of coding fundamentals. The Conquering JavaScript series is edited by Sufyan bin Uzayr, a writer and educator having over a decade of experience in the computing field. Sufyan holds multiple degrees, and has taught at universities and insti- tutions worldwide.

Having authored and edited over 50 books thusfar, Sufyan brings a wide array of experience to the series. Learn more about his works at sufyanism.com.
