About the Author
Preface
This is broken into three pieces. The basics are first. Covering topics like variables, functions, and conditionals. We also cover loops and closures too.
Then in the second part, we delve into more advanced topics in JavaScript. Starting with objects, arrays, Type Conversion, and Coercion. Next, we cover complementary topics like numbers, strings, equality, and the arrow functions.
As I have learned JavaScript over the years in fits and starts this compilation is of some of the fundamentals. The numerous changes that came with ES6 have shifted things. I cover the spread and rest operator too. I have found some of these things more challenging. So I took the time to add some additional resources for you.
In our third part, we cover Vue.js. This is a popular reactive JavaScript. We cover how you can get started with Vue.js. From installing it to covering the basics of how it binds data. Then we review form components and lists. The Vue Router is the director for your application. In our last couple of chapters, we review Vuex for state management, Vuetify for styling, and Vuelidate for validation. These are common enhancements for Vue.js.

JavaScript
With its humble beginnings, JavaScript has evolved into a modern programming language. From the browser to the server it can handle almost everything. Node.js gives it a powerful framework on the server side.
Mozilla created it and here is how they define it. JavaScript is a lightweight interpreted programming language with first-class functions.
That is a mouthful!
Code
Let’s look at some basic code. It is an HTML file displaying some JavaScript. Save this code to
