JavaScript has finally grown up. Armed with a slew of new features,
JavaScript now makes writing the code that powers your applications
elegant, concise, and easy to understand. This book is a pragmatic guide
to the new features introduced in JavaScript, starting with Edition 6 of
ECMAScript, and ending with Edition 9.
Using a "compare and contrast" approach, each chapter offers a deep dive
into new features, highlighting how best to use them moving forward. As
you progress through the book, you'll be offered multiple opportunities
to see the new features in action, and in concert with one another.
Backed by an example-driven writing style, you'll learn by doing, and
get ready to embrace the new world of JavaScript.
