   Eich invented Mocha (Dec) LiveScript renamed to JavaScript JSScript (June) ECMA-262 Ed.1! ! by TC39 committee ECMA-262 Ed.2 ECMA-262 Ed.3 ECMA-262 Ed.4 started ECMA-262 Ed.4 abandoned (Sep) Mocha renamed to LiveScript

9. (Fat) arrow function var y = (x) => x +

   1 var y = function(x) { return x + 1; } ES6 ES5

10. (Fat) arrow function var y = function(x) { return x

    + 1; } ES6 ES5 Syntax sugar var y = (x) => x + 1

11. (Fat) arrow function var y = function(x) { return x

    + 1; } ES6 ES5 Syntax sugar Lexical `this` binding var y = (x) => x + 1

12. (Fat) arrow function var y = function(x) { return x

    + 1; } ES6 ES5 No constructor Syntax sugar Lexical `this` binding var y = (x) => x + 1

13. var y = (x) => {return x + 1} var

    y = function(x) { return x + 1; } ES6 ES5

14. var y = (x) => {return x + 1} var

    y = function(x) { return x + 1; } var z = (x, y) => ({ x: x, y: y }) var z = function(x, y) { return { x: x, y: y }; } ES6 ES5

15. var mapFn = words => words.map((w) => w.length); var mapFn

    = function(words) { return words.map(function(w) { return w.length; } } ES6 ES5 mapFn([‘sea’, ‘beach’, ‘do’]); // [3,5,2]

16. var obj = { doIt: function(){}, handle: function(){ var that

    = this; document.addEventListener(‘click’, function(e) { that.doIt(); }); } } ES3

17. var obj = { doIt: function(){}, handle: function(){ document.addEventListener(‘click’, function(e)

    { this.doIt(); }.bind(this)); } } ES5 var obj = { doIt: function(){}, handle: function(){ var that = this; document.addEventListener(‘click’, function(e) { that.doIt(); }); } } ES3

18. var obj = { doIt: function(){}, handle: function(){ document.addEventListener(‘click’, (e)

    => this.doIt()); } } ES6

19. Object.getPrototypeOf(() => {})

20. Object.getPrototypeOf(() => {}) Function.prototype

21. When to use ‘function’ ?

22. Constructors Generators (Methods in object literals)

23. Summary Arrow Functions Collections API improvements Proxies Scoping / Destructing

    / Parameters Iteration & Generators Modularity / Classes / Templates

24. Block Scoping Each BLOCK has got its lexical environment let/const

    bind variables to the lexical environment Variables declared with let/const are NOT hoisted

25. var vs let (function() { console.log(y) // “undefined” if (true)

    { var y = “value”; } console.log(y) // “value” }());

26. var vs let (function() { if (true) { let y

    = “value”; } console.log(y) // ERROR!! }()); (function() { console.log(y) // “undefined” if (true) { var y = “value”; } console.log(y) // “value” }());

27. const (function() { const X; X = “foo”; // ERROR:

    x unitialized }()); (function() { const X = “foo”; X = “foo2”; // ERROR: x is read-only }());

28. Block functions if (true) { function fn () {} }

    ! fn(); // ERROR!

29. Destructing array var [x,y] = [‘a’, ‘b’]; ! console.log(x); //

    ‘a’ ! console.log(y); // ‘b’ ! ! var [x,y] = [y, x]; ! console.log(x); // ‘b’

30. Destructing object var obj = {width: 50, height: 100}; !

    ! var {width: w, height: h} = obj; var {width, height} = obj; ! ! console.log(width); // 50 console.log(w); // 50 console.log(height); // 100 console.log(h); // 100

31. Multiple return value var fn = function(){ return [“50”, “100”];

    } ! var [width, height] = fn(); ! console.log(width); //50 console.log(height); //100

32. var fn = function(){ return { foo: “bar”, fizz: “buzz”

    } } ! var {foo, fizz} = fn(); ! console.log(foo); //“bar” console.log(fizz); //“buzz”

33. Parameter default values function(foo) { foo = foo || “a”;

    }

34. function(foo) { foo = foo || “a”; } function(foo =

    “a”) {} Parameter default values

35. function fn(…args) { console.log(args); //[“a”, “b”, “c”] args.forEach(function(arg) { console.log(arg);

    }); } ! fn(“a”, “b”, “c”); ! // a // b // c Rest parameters

36. Rest parameters function fn(a, …args) { console.log(args); //[“b”, “c”] args.forEach(function(arg)

    { console.log(arg); }); } ! fn(“a”, “b”, “c”); ! // b // c

37. Spread operator function fn(a, b, c) {} ! var array

    = [“A”, “B”, “C”]; fn.apply(null, array);

38. function fn(a, b, c) {} ! var array = [“A”,

    “B”, “C”]; fn.apply(null, array); fn(…array); Spread operator

39. function fn({id, name}) { console.log(name); } ! fn({name: “Seb”}); //

    “Seb Named parameters

    Scoping / Destructing / Parameters Modularity / Classes / Templates

41. for-of for-of loop on ‘iterables’ and iterators Arrays/Sets/Maps are ’iterables’

    for-in limitations

42. for-of var array = [“a”, “b”, “c”]; ! for (let

    el of array) { console.log(el); } ! // “a” // “b” // “c”

43. Iterable { @@iterator: function() -> iterator } { next: function()

    -> any } Iterators

44. Iterator var array = [“a”, “b”, “c”]; ! array.entries() //

    Array Iterator array.keys() // Array Iterator Iterator from Array, Map, Set

45. function* g() { yield “a”; yield “b”; } Generator var

    generator = g(); generator ‘constructor’ generator.next(); //{ value: “a”, done: false} generator.next(); //{ value: “b”, done: false} generator.next(); //{ value: undefined, done: true}

46. ! function* g() { yield “a”; var retVal = yield

    “b”; return retVal; } var generator = g(); generator.next().value; //“a” generator.next().value; //“b” generator.next(“c”).value; //“c”

47. ! function* asyncFn() { var data = yield getUser(); doSomethingElse(data);

    } function run(genFunction) { var generator = genFunction(); generator.next().value.then(function(val){ generator.next(val); }, function(err) { generator.throw(err); }); } run(asyncFn); Promise

48. for (let el of generator) { console.log(el); } Generators are

    iterables

50. Set NO duplicates values

51. Set NO duplicates values Different types in a set

52. Set NO duplicates values Different types in a set add(key)/

    has(key) / delete(key)

53. Set NO duplicates values Different types in a set add(key)/

    has(key) / delete(key) values() -> Iterator

54. let countries = new Set(); countries.add(“US”); countries.add(“Italy”); countries.add(“US”); ! countries

    // Set [“US”, “Italy”]

55. let countries = new Set([“US”, “Italy”]); countries // Set [“US”,

    “Italy”] ! ! ! countries.delete(“Italy”); countries // Set [“US”]

56. ! for(let country of countries.values()) { console.log(country); // “US” }

    ! for(let country of countries) { console.log(country); // “US” }

57. Map {“foo” : “bar” }

58. Map {“foo” : “bar” } Keys can be objects

59. Map {“foo” : “bar” } Keys can be objects get(key);

    has(key); set(key,val)

60. Map {“foo” : “bar” } get(key); has(key); set(key,val) delete(key); clear();

    forEach(); Keys can be objects

61. let dict = new Map(); dict.set(“A”, 1); dict.set(“B”, 2); !

    dict // Map {“A”: 1, “B”: 2}

62. let dict = new Map(); dict.set(“A”, 1); dict.set(“B”, 2); !

    dict // Map {“A”: 1, “B”: 2} ! dict.get(“A”); // “1” dict.delete(“B”);

63. for(let w of dict.keys()) { // Map Iterator console.log(w); //

    “A” } ! for(let w of dict.values()) { // Map Iterator console.log(w); // 1 } ! dict.clear(); dict.size; // 0

64. let dict = new Map([[“x”, 1], [“y”, 2]]); ! !

    dict; // Map {x: 1, y: 2} ! ! ! for(let w of dict) { ! console.log(w); // [“x”, 1] // [“y”, 2] ! });

65. dict.forEach(function(val, key, map) { ! console.log(val); // x // y

    ! console.log(key); // 1 // 2 ! console.log(map); // Map { x: 1, y: 2} ! });

66. WeakMap Avoid memory leaks

67. WeakMap Avoid memory leaks Reference to the key obj held

    weakly

68. WeakMap Avoid memory leaks Reference to the key obj held

    weakly Keys must be an objects
