Track: Web development
Javascript is one of the worlds most used programming languages, and companies and programmers all over the world rely on it. Yet, most programmers dislike it and it is treated like a second class citizen. The Javascript language has a reputation of being an ugly programming language and to some extent rightfully so, but under the ugly surface is a beautiful programming language with lambdas and closures. In this tutorial you will learn to use Javascript, functional programming techniques, and some useful libraries that can make life with Javascript a joy.

Programming skills in any language

Programmers, used to languages other than Javascript, will learn to write good, non-intrusive Javascript that allow them to create dynamic web applications.
