Comment Feed for Channel 9 - JavaScript: The Language http://files.ch9.ms/mix/2011/thumbs/HTM06.jpg Channel 9 - JavaScript: The Language While JavaScript has become one of the most widely used programming languages in the world, it has also unfortunately remained one of the most misunderstood programming languages. This session will give a thorough review of the core ideas in the JavaScript language, including topics such as objects, conversions, prototypal inheritance, and closures, as well as popular design patterns. We’ll also discuss the additions to the language coming with ECMAScript5 and how best to use them to create more scalable and reusable code. Whether you are new to JavaScript, or already a seasoned JavaScript user, this session is your opportunity to get a deep and focused understanding of the JavaScript language. en Wed, 19 Jun 2013 11:54:00 GMT Wed, 19 Jun 2013 11:54:00 GMT Rev9 Re: JavaScript: The Language When i downloaded this i thought it maybe just an intro type of session.. but Honestly believe me this was one of the best session of MIX11 i have seen. Luke gave a very nice an Informative tour of JavaScript and little preview of some of the features  of ECMAScript5.

Those who haven't seen it yet.. Download it now.. (its worth the bandwidth usage Smiley

Thanx Luke Hoban and Channel9 for bringing this up.

Otherwise, very good.
