JavaScript for Data Science (Chapman & Hall/CRC Data Science Series)
by Greg Wilson Maya Gans Toby HodgesJavaScript is the native language of the Internet. Originally created to make web pages more dynamic, it is now used for software projects of all kinds, including scientific visualization and data services. However, most data scientists have little or no experience with JavaScript, and most introductions to the language are written for people who want to build shopping carts rather than share maps of coral reefs. This book will introduce you to JavaScript's power and idiosyncrasies and guide you through the key features of the language and its tools and libraries. The book places equal focus on client- and server-side programming, and shows readers how to create interactive web content, build and test data services, and visualize data in the browser. Topics include: The core features of modern JavaScript Creating templated web pages Making those pages interactive using React Data visualization using Vega-Lite Using Data-Forge to wrangle tabular data Building a data service with Express Unit testing with Mocha All of the material is covered by the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 4.0 International license (CC-BY-NC-4.0) and is included in the book's companion website at http://js4ds.org . Maya Gans is a freelance data scientist and front-end developer by way of quantitative biology. Toby Hodges is a bioinformatician turned community coordinator who works at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory. Greg Wilson co-founded Software Carpentry, and is now part of the education team at RStudio

JavaScript with Promises: Managing Asynchronous Code
by Daniel ParkerAsynchronous JavaScript is everywhere, whether you’re using Ajax, AngularJS, Node.js, or WebRTC. This practical guide shows intermediate to advanced JavaScript developers how Promises can help you manage asynchronous code effectively—including the inevitable flood of callbacks as your codebase grows. You’ll learn the inner workings of Promises and ways to avoid difficulties and missteps when using them.The ability to asynchronously fetch data and load scripts in the browser broadens the capabilities of JavaScript applications. But if you don’t understand how the async part works, you’ll wind up with unpredictable code that’s difficult to maintain. This book is ideal whether you’re new to Promises or want to expand your knowledge of this technology.Understand how async JavaScript works by delving into callbacks, the event loop, and threadingLearn how Promises organize callbacks into discrete steps that are easier to read and maintainExamine scenarios you’ll encounter and techniques you can use when writing real-world applicationsUse features in the Bluebird library and jQuery to work with PromisesLearn how the Promise API handles asynchronous errorsExplore ECMAScript 6 language features that simplify Promise-related code

JavaScript: Activate Your Web Pages
by David FlanaganSince 1996, JavaScript: The Definitive Guide has been the bible for JavaScript programmers--a programmer's guide and comprehensive reference to the core language and to the client-side JavaScript APIs defined by web browsers. The 6th edition covers HTML5 and ECMAScript 5. Many chapters have been completely rewritten to bring them in line with today's best web development practices. New chapters in this edition document jQuery and server side JavaScript. It's recommended for experienced programmers who want to learn the programming language of the Web, and for current JavaScript programmers who want to master it.

JavaScript: Best Practice
by M. David Green Craig Buckler Jeff Mott James Kolce Moritz Kroger Ivan Curic Samier SaeedThere's no doubt that the JavaScript ecosystem changes fast. Not only are new tools and frameworks introduced and developed at a rapid rate, the language itself has undergone big changes with the introduction of ES2015 (aka ES6). Understandably, many articles have been written complaining about how difficult it is to learn modern JavaScript development these days. We're aiming to minimize that confusion with this set of books on modern JavaScript. This book presents modern JavaScript best practice, utilizing the features now available in the language that enable you to write more powerful code that is clean, performant, maintainable, and resusable. It contains: The Anatomy of a Modern JavaScript Application by James KolceClean Code with ES6 Default Parameters & Property Shorthands by Moritz KrugerJavaScript Performance Optimization Tips: An Overview by Ivan CuriCJavaScript Design Patterns: The Singleton by Samier SaeedJavaScript Object Creation: Patterns and Best Practices by Jeff MottBest Practices for Using Modern JavaScript Syntax by M.

What You Will Learn • Get a run through of the basic language constructs, Functions, and Closures of JavaScript • Code using the powerful object-oriented feature in JavaScript • Master DOM manipulation, cross-browser strategies, and ES6 • Harness the power of patterns for tasks ranging from application building to code testing • Identify the best use cases for microservices • Gain expertise in responsive and dynamic website design • Enable real-time communications between client-client and client-server/server-client • Write complete applications using functional reactive programming In Detail JavaScript is a high-level, dynamic, untyped, lightweight, and interpreted programming language. Mastering modern JavaScript techniques and the toolchain are essential to develop web-scale applications. This Learning Path will upgrade your skills to ES2015, and you will get to introduce yourself to popular frameworks like React and Angular 2. In the first module, you will get familiar with the language constructs and how to make code easy to organize. You will gain a concrete understanding of variable scoping, loops, and best practices on using types and data structures, as well as the coding style and recommended code organization patterns in JavaScript. By the end of the module, you will understand how reactive JavaScript is going to be the new paradigm. Over the course of the next module, you will explore how design patterns can help you improve and organize your JavaScript code. You'll get to grips with creational, structural, and behavioral patterns and get a deeper look at patterns used in functional programming, as well as model view patterns and patterns to build web applications. By the end of the module, you'll be saved of a lot of trial and error and developmental headaches, and you will be on the road to becoming a JavaScript expert. In the last leg of this course, you will shift your focus to network programming concepts as you build a real-time web application with websockets. Along the way, you'll explore how the power of JavaScript can be increased multi-fold with high performance techniques. By the end of this module, you'll be a skilled JavaScript developer with a solid knowledge of the latest JavaScript techniques, tools, and architecture to build modern web apps.
