Книга Secrets
of the JavaScript Ninja (на англ. языке) 2012 год
Summary
Secrets of the Javascript Ninja takes you on a
journey towards mastering modern JavaScript development in three
phases: design, construction, and maintenance. Written for
JavaScript developers with intermediate-level skills, this book
will give you the knowledge you need to create a cross-browser
JavaScript library from the ground up.
About this Book
You can't always attack software head-on. Sometimes you come at it
sideways or sneak up from behind. You need to master an arsenal of
tools and know every stealthy trick. You have to be a ninja.
Secrets of the JavaScript Ninja leads you down the
pathway to JavaScript enlightenment. This unique book starts with
key concepts, like the relationships between functions, objects,
and closures, taught from the master's perspective. You'll grow
from apprentice to ninja as you soak up fresh insights on the
techniques you use every day and discover features and capabilities
you never knew about. When you reach the final chapters, you'll be
ready to code brilliant JavaScript applications and maybe even
write your own libraries and frameworks.
You don't have to be a ninja to read this book—just be willing to
become one. Are you ready?
Purchase of the print book comes with an offer of a free PDF, ePub,
and Kindle eBook from Manning. Also available is all code from the
book.
