Javascript Best Practices
Javascript Best PracticesChristian Heilmann A presentation about tricks and best practice ideas of how to use JavaScript given in our office in India as part of an internal training.
JavaScript - From Birth To Closure
JavaScript - From Birth To ClosureRobert Nyman This presentation will give you a brief background to JavaScript, what it is and where it comes from. Then it will walk you through general pitfalls, best practices and more advanced topics such as object-orientation, scope and closures.
Performance Optimization and JavaScript Best Practices
Performance Optimization and JavaScript Best PracticesDoris Chen Performance optimization and JavaScript best practices tips are discussed in the talk. Here are some of the tips:
Put stylesheets at the top (css)
Move scripts to the bottom (javascript)
Provide a clean separation of content, CSS, and JavaScript
De-reference unused objects
Think Asynchronous
Working with Objects
Defer Loading Resources
Use JSLint -- Code Quality Tool
Reduce the size of JavaScript file
gzip
General JavaScript Coding Best Practices
Use === Instead of ==
Eval = Bad
Don’t Use Short-Hand
Reduce Globals: Namespace
Don't Pass a String to "SetInterval" or "SetTimeOut"
Use {} Instead of New Object()
Use [] Instead of New Array()
Metaprogramming JavaScript
Metaprogramming JavaScriptdanwrong JavaScript allows for metaprogramming through manipulating programs as data. It relies on few but powerful constructs including working with functions, arguments, built-in types, and mechanisms like inheritance at runtime. The key building blocks are objects, numbers, strings, booleans, and undefined, with everything else being objects. Functions are objects that can return other functions, taking advantage of closures to refer to outer variables from inner functions. This flexibility allows for patching implementations, self-optimizing code, custom APIs, and domain-specific languages.
Intro to node.js - Ran Mizrahi (28/8/14)
Intro to node.js - Ran Mizrahi (28/8/14)Ran Mizrahi This document provides an introduction to Node.js, including what it is, how it works, and some common frameworks and tools used with Node.js. Node.js is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine that uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model to handle requests. It allows for easy development of scalable network applications. The document discusses Node.js' event loop architecture, non-blocking I/O, and provides examples of using Express, Socket.IO, Mongoose and testing with Mocha/Chai.
"Javascript" por Tiago Rodrigues
"Javascript" por Tiago RodriguesNúcleo de Electrónica e Informática da Universidade do Algarve The document discusses JavaScript, describing it as:
- Created in 1995 by Netscape and based on the ECMAScript standard.
- A dynamic, weakly typed, object-oriented programming language that is often misunderstood.
- Used for client-side scripting of webpages as well as server-side and application scripting.
- Commonly disliked due to past bad practices, implementations, and browser differences, but these issues are improving over time.
Javascript Module Patterns
Javascript Module PatternsNicholas Jansma This document discusses JavaScript module patterns, which help organize and limit the scope of code in projects. It covers different patterns for creating objects and modules, including using constructors, prototypes, the revealing module pattern, CommonJS, and AMD. The basic module pattern allows defining private and public members to encapsulate data and functions. Later patterns like CommonJS and AMD build on this to support asynchronous loading and use in different environments like the browser and Node.js.
The DOM is a Mess @ Yahoo
The DOM is a Mess @ Yahoojeresig The document discusses the messy and buggy state of the DOM across browsers and strategies for writing cross-browser JavaScript code. It notes that nearly every DOM method has bugs or inconsistencies in some browsers. It then covers strategies like feature detection, graceful fallback for missing features, simulating features via workarounds, monitoring for regressions, and having a robust test suite to prevent regressions in one's own code. The overall message is that the DOM is messy and one needs to "know your enemies" by thoroughly testing code in all target browsers.

Patterns for JVM languages - Geecon 2014
Patterns for JVM languages - Geecon 2014Jaroslaw Palka In recent years we have seen explosion of languages which run on Java Virtual Machine. We also have seen existing languages getting their implementations being rewritten to JVM. With all of the above we have seen rapid development of tools like parsers, bytecode generators and such, even inside JVM we saw initiatives like Da Vinci Machine Project, which led to invoke dynamic in JDK 7 and recent development of Graal and Truffle projects.
Is it really hard to write new programming language running on JVM? Even if you are not going to write your own I think it is worth to understand how your favorite language runs undercover, how early decisions can impact language extensibility and performance, what JVM itself and JVM ecosystem has to offer to language implementors.
During session I will try to get you familiar with options you have when choosing parsers and byte code manipulation libraries. which language implementation to consider, how to test and tune your "new baby". Will you be able after this session to develop new and shiny language, packed with killer features language? No. But for sure you will understand difference between lexers and parsers, how bytecode works, why invoke dynamic and Graal and Truffle are so important to the future of JVM platform. Will we have time to write simple, compiled language?
Yes, we will, just to show you that even person who didn't studied computer science, compilers theory, and for majority of his life didn't know what AST is, can do it :)
Design patterns revisited with PHP 5.3
Design patterns revisited with PHP 5.3Fabien Potencier The document discusses how PHP 5.3 changes the implementation of common design patterns like the Singleton pattern and Observer pattern through the use of anonymous functions. It provides code examples of implementing these patterns in PHP 4/5.0-5.2 versus PHP 5.3 using features like closures, late static binding, and __invoke(). The document also proposes building a dependency injection container in PHP 5.3 using anonymous functions to describe object creation without instantiating objects. This approach results in a simple yet fully-featured dependency injector implementation in around 40 lines of code.

Javascript best practices
Javascript best practicesManav Gupta This document provides best practices for writing JavaScript code. It recommends using strict comparison operators (=== and !==), declaring variables with 'var' to avoid globals, adding comments with /* */, using object literals for configuration, validating external data, optimizing loops, and using dot and bracket notation wisely based on property visibility. Braces {} should be used to clearly delimit blocks. Variable types should not be changed after declaration and shortcuts like conditionals (?:) can optimize code.

Scalable JavaScript Application Architecture
Scalable JavaScript Application ArchitectureNicholas Zakas \n\nThe document discusses scalable JavaScript application architecture. It advocates for a modular approach where each component (module) has a limited, well-defined purpose and interface. Modules are loosely coupled by communicating through a central sandbox interface rather than directly referencing each other. The core application manages modules by registering, starting, and stopping them. It also handles errors and enables extension points. This architecture aims to build flexible, maintainable applications that can evolve over time.
