Warm Up Your JavaScript Skills!

If you learned JavaScript before 2015, you may have noticed that the syntax used by today’s popular JavaScript frameworks looks very different from the JavaScript you know. JavaScript got a major upgrade in 2015, and it has been gaining new and useful features every year as part of its new annual version update schedule.

In this webinar, Chris will first give you a low-level review of how JavaScript works, followed by an explanation and hands-on coding demos of some of the most interesting new features: including modules, template literals, generator functions, async functions, and more.
