JavaScript: The Good Parts
Ok, so JavaScript is not perfect...
Your favorite language sucks too
JS is faster than other dynamic langs: Ruby, PHP, Python...
demo
It’s all about the trade-offs
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT ON THE SERVER
OMG, NODE.JS IS TOTALLY AMAZING
Node demo
~25000 npm packages
Including web frameworks like Express and Tower (MVC)
Used in production by companies like LinkedIn and rdio
Meteor demo
Meteor, SocketStream, Derby...
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT IN GAMES
WebGL
voxel.js demo
None
None
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT IN THE DATABASE
MongoDB, CouchDB, Persevere...
MongoDB shell - all JavaScript > db.people.find({_id: 10})
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT ON MOBILE DEVICES
None
None
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT THE WAY YOU LIKE IT
Want Ruby & Python? Coffeescript
Want Clojure? Clojurescript
Want Java? Dart
Want Microsoft... static typing? Typescript
And there’s half a dozen of others...
Personally I prefer: JavaScript
THERE WILL BE JAVASCRIPT EVERYWHERE
Everything that can be written in JS, will eventually be
written in JS Atwood’s Law
github.com/languages JavaScript 21%
You can use 5 languages. Or you can learn JavaScript
JavaScript - the only language people feel they don't need
to learn before they start using it. Douglas Crockford
IS AWESOME JAVASCRIPT
