The bad news is that their power is out of reach until mainstream browsers fully implement the ECMAScript 6 standards that make up web components. Fortunately for Ember.js developers, the power of web components can be leveraged today in […]
JavaScript Configuration Object Pattern

One of the first hurdles you run into is, “Hey, I need some data from the server injected in my JavaScript.” Some developers, when posed this problem, have an […]
A Simple Visual Model for Promises

In its simplest form, a promise represents the state of the result of some future computation. I was introduced recently to this construct when studying jQuery and AngularJS. In the beginning, I wasn’t able to wrap my head around it. While I understood […]

Both have great features, plugins and support but there’s a new player that I […]
JavaScript Fundamentals
By Azat Mardanov If it’s not fun, it’s not JavaScript. And you can’t spell fundamentals without fun. Programming languages like BASIC, Python and C have a boring, machine-like nature that requires developers to write extra code that’s not directly related to the solution itself. Think about line numbers in BASIC or interfaces, classes and patterns […]
