Mastering Modular Javascript
Posted
# Programming
Sometimes when i develop i am not the proudest on how my code looks. It’s always a good idea to improve your proffesional skills, which for me is being a frontend developer.
The book started quite slow by explaining the history of how JS is being used and what technologies were introduced to meet the requirements for these problems. The book explained a lot of different practices which I felt went out of the scope of modular programming and more in the line of programming best practices in general.
It’s not a bad thing since I like to read and refresh some of the known practices and learn some new aspects. The book very much focuses on having a good API/interface for your different modules/logic which the author did explain well why this is the case. Some tips and tricks are shared to start implementing good interfaces for your code before really starting on the implementation directly without thinking. I like the fact that well written clear understandable code takes precedence to fancy code which is harder to read but might be a bit more optimized.
The book could be a bit more practical and hands-on because this book mainly focusses on practices/interfacing and ES6. To really start writing modular JS code I will have to dive into Google to get the info I need.
