Study Notes

ES6 Features

  • Let and Const:

    • let allows block-scoped variable declaration.
    • const is used for constants, also block-scoped.
  • Arrow Functions:

    • Shorter syntax for functions (e.g., const add = (a, b) => a + b;).
    • Lexical this binding, which retains the context of this.
  • Template Literals:

    • String interpolation with backticks (`Hello ${name}`).
    • Multiline strings without concatenation.
  • Destructuring Assignment:

    • Extract values from arrays or properties from objects (e.g., const {a, b} = obj;).
  • Spread and Rest Operators:

    • Spread: ... expands an iterable (e.g., const arr = [1, 2, ...otherArr];).
    • Rest: ... collects arguments into an array (e.g., function sum(...args) {}).
  • Classes:

    • Syntax for creating objects and inheritance (e.g., class Dog extends Animal {}).
  • Modules:

    • Support for modular code using import and export.

DOM Manipulation

  • Selecting Elements:

    • document.getElementById(), document.querySelector(), document.querySelectorAll().
  • Modifying Elements:

    • Change content: element.textContent, element.innerHTML.
    • Change styles: element.style.property.
  • Creating and Removing Elements:

    • Create: document.createElement().
    • Append: parentElement.appendChild(childElement).
    • Remove: parentElement.removeChild(childElement).
  • Event Listeners:

    • element.addEventListener(event, handler) for handling events.

Async Programming

  • Callbacks: Functions passed as arguments to handle asynchronous operations.

  • Promises:

    • Objects representing the eventual completion (or failure) of an asynchronous operation.
    • Methods: .then(), .catch(), .finally().
  • Async/Await:

    • Syntactic sugar over promises for cleaner asynchronous code.
    • Use async function to wrap code and await to pause execution until promise resolves.

JavaScript Frameworks

  • React:

    • Component-based architecture for building user interfaces.
    • Utilizes a virtual DOM for optimized rendering.
  • Angular:

    • Full-fledged framework for building web applications with TypeScript.
    • Features two-way data binding and dependency injection.
  • Vue.js:

    • Progressive framework for building user interfaces.
    • Combines features from React and Angular for flexibility.
  • Node.js:

    • Runtime environment that allows JavaScript to be run on the server side.
    • Uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model.

Event Handling

  • Event Types:

    • Click, mouseover, keypress, etc.
  • Adding Event Handlers:

    • Use addEventListener() to attach functions to events.
  • Event Propagation:

    • Bubbling: Events bubble up from child to parent elements.
    • Capturing: Events capture down from parent to child elements.
  • Prevent Default Behavior:

    • Use event.preventDefault() to prevent default action (e.g., preventing form submission).
  • Event Delegation:

    • Attach a single event listener to a parent element to manage events for multiple child elements.

ES6 Features

  • Let and Const:

    • let enables block-level variable scoping, allowing variables to be limited to the block, statement, or expression where they are defined.
    • const declares block-scoped constants that cannot be reassigned after their initial value.
  • Arrow Functions:

    • Provide a concise syntax for function expressions (e.g., const add = (a, b) => a + b;).
    • Maintain the lexical context of this, making them particularly useful for callbacks and methods.
  • Template Literals:

    • Allow for easy string interpolation using backticks (`Hello ${name}`).
    • Enable multiline strings without the need for concatenation, enhancing readability.
  • Destructuring Assignment:

    • Facilitates unpacking values from arrays and properties from objects in a more intuitive way (e.g., const {a, b} = obj;).
  • Spread and Rest Operators:

    • Spread operator (...) allows the expansion of iterable elements into a new array or argument list (e.g., const arr = [1, 2,...otherArr];).
    • Rest operator (...) collects multiple arguments into an array for easier handling in functions (e.g., function sum(...args) {}).
  • Classes:

    • Introduce a cleaner syntax for creating objects and handling inheritance (e.g., class Dog extends Animal {}).
  • Modules:

    • Support the modular structure of code through import and export statements, promoting reusable components.

DOM Manipulation

  • Selecting Elements:

    • Use methods like document.getElementById(), document.querySelector(), and document.querySelectorAll() to access DOM elements effectively.
  • Modifying Elements:

    • Change the content of elements directly using element.textContent or element.innerHTML.
    • Modify styles dynamically via element.style.property.
  • Creating and Removing Elements:

    • Create new elements with document.createElement(), allowing for dynamic content generation.
    • Append or remove elements using parentElement.appendChild(childElement) or parentElement.removeChild(childElement).
  • Event Listeners:

    • Attach event handlers using element.addEventListener(event, handler) to respond to user interactions.

Async Programming

  • Callbacks:

    • Functions that are passed as arguments and are executed after a particular event or completion of a task, commonly used for asynchronous operations.
  • Promises:

    • Represent the eventual completion (or failure) of an asynchronous operation, providing a more manageable way to handle asynchronous code.
    • Support methods such as .then(), .catch(), and .finally() for streamlined success/failure handling.
  • Async/Await:

    • Syntactical sugar built on top of promises, allowing for simpler writing of asynchronous code.
    • Define an async function to wrap code and use await to pause execution until the promise settles.

JavaScript Frameworks

  • React:

    • A component-based library designed for building user interfaces with a focus on a virtual DOM to enhance performance.
  • Angular:

    • A comprehensive framework leveraging TypeScript, featuring robust architecture with support for two-way data binding and dependency injection.
  • Vue.js:

    • A progressive JavaScript framework combining features from both React and Angular, providing flexibility in UI development.
  • Node.js:

    • A server-side runtime environment allowing JavaScript to run outside of the browser, driven by an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model.

Event Handling

  • Event Types:

    • Various user interactions can trigger events, including click, mouseover, and keypress.
  • Adding Event Handlers:

    • Use addEventListener() to link specific functions to events, enhancing interactivity.
  • Event Propagation:

    • Bubbling: Events propagate from child elements to parent elements.
    • Capturing: Events capture from parent elements to child elements before reaching the target.
  • Prevent Default Behavior:

    • Use event.preventDefault() to stop the default action associated with an event, such as form submissions.
  • Event Delegation:

    • Attach a single event listener to a parent element to manage events for multiple child elements efficiently, optimizing performance and reducing memory usage.
