JavaScript Air Episode 001: Learning and Developing JavaScript

+Ashley Williams and +Kyle Simpson know a thing or two about teaching JavaScript. These two wonderful people will jump on and chat with us about learning and developing this wonky language called JavaScript.

Kyle is absolutely right, there are plenty of frameworks out there for JavaScript but learning core JavaScript just make us understand this language much better. Keep it up guys 👍😊😄

This was surprisingly the best podcast I've ever listened about programming. I must say I didn't see it coming. `+1 subscriber

I must say I kind of regretted having picked JS for my first language but that is only so
because a lot of books and tutorials compare JS’s prototypal nature to
classical inheritance. I didn’t really know what classical inheritance really
means. Also, closure as a mean to achieve privacy unlike other languages and
how “this” differs from “this” in C# or Java etc. Such comparisons aren’t really
great for a beginner. Having said that and going through it all step by step, I don’t regret it anymore :)

What was the book that I think Kyle was referring to that helped her in her interviews? I would love to know how stuff is implemented in specs.

Thank you!
