JavaScript Beyond the Basics

Thu, Feb 11 6:00pm

Presentation Overview:

JavaScript is one of the most widely used languages around and yet its also one of the most misunderstood. With Ajaxified UIs becoming the norm, this humble language is once again at the forefront. In this talk, we'll go beyond the basics of JavaScript delving into the mysteries of prototype inheritance, objects, language edge cases and the importance of testing.
