  5. It all started at 1995

  6. Brendan Eich + 10 days = JavaScript

  7. What did we do with this new language? (You really

    don't want to know)

  8. CUT & PASTE

  9. None
  10. None

  17. What happened?

  18. What happened?

  19. JavaScript went from nothing to …

  20. "any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually

  21. JavaScript Where are we now?

  22. We expect more!

  23. None
  24. None

  25. SPA Single-page applications

  26. None

  32. None

  33. Node.js in production?

  34. “Assembly language of the web”

  35. None

  36. # Assignment: number = 42 opposite = true # Conditions:

    number = -42 if opposite # Functions: square = (x) -> x * x # Arrays: list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] # Objects: math = root: Math.sqrt square: square cube: (x) -> x * square x Inspired by Ruby and Python Several features will be added to the next JS version

  37. class Point { x: number; y: number; constructor(x: number, y:

    number) { this.x = x; this.y = y; } getDist() { return Math.sqrt( this.x * this.x + this.y * this.y ); } } var p = new Point(3,4); var dist = p.getDst(); console.log("Hypotenuse is: " + dist); Optional static typing. Superset of JS.

  38. data Person = Person { name :: String, age ::

    Number } showPerson :: Person -> String showPerson (Person o) = o.name ++ ", aged " ++ show o.age examplePerson :: Person examplePerson = Person { name: "Bonnie", age: 26 } Inspired by Haskell

  39. (ns example (:require [om.core :as om] [om.dom :as dom])) (defn

    widget [data owner] (reify om/IRender (render [this] (dom/h1 nil (:text data))))) (om/root widget {:text "Hello world!"} {:target (. js/document (getElementById "my-app"))}) A Lisp for the browser

  43. int f(int i) { return i + 1; } C

    function f(i) { i = i|0; return (i + 1)|0; } asm.js

  44. But what happens when you can run C and C++

    code in the browser?
