JavaScript Patterns
What's the best approach for developing an application with JavaScript? This book helps you answer that question with numerous JavaScript coding patterns and best practices. If you're an experienced developer looking to solve problems related to objects, functions, inheritance, and other language-specific categories, the abstractions and code templates in this guide are ideal -- whether you're writing a client-side, server-side, or desktop application with JavaScript. Written by JavaScript expert Stoyan Stefanov -- Senior Yahoo! Technical and architect of YSlow 2.0, the web page performance optimization tool -- JavaScript Patterns includes practical advice for implementing each pattern discussed, along with several hands-on examples. You'll also learn about anti-patterns: common programming approaches that cause more problems than they solve.* Explore useful habits for writing high-quality JavaScript code, such as avoiding globals, using single var declarations, and more * Learn why literal notation patterns are simpler alternatives to constructor functions * Discover different ways to define a function in JavaScript * Create objects that go beyond the basic patterns of using object literals and constructor functions * Learn the options available for code reuse and inheritance in JavaScript * Study sample JavaScript approaches to common design patterns such as Singleton, Factory, Decorator, and more * Examine patterns that apply specifically to the client-side browser environment

You Don't Need JavaScript
A CSS-first guide to replace unnecessary JavaScript with modern HTML and CSS. Learn to build modals, dark mode, smooth scrolling, form validation, popovers, and more with modern HTML and CSS.Key FeaturesBuild common UI patterns with modern HTML and CSS instead of unnecessary JavaScriptLearn solid production techniques and latest platform features you can adopt with progressive enhancementExplore real interface problems about accessibility, performance, and maintainability with real-world examplesBook DescriptionFor years, JavaScript has been the default answer for almost every interactive detail on the web. Need a modal, a dropdown, dark mode, smooth scrolling, or form validation? Most frontend developers reach for JavaScript without thinking twice. But the platform has changed.This book shows how much modern HTML and CSS can already do on their own. Through practical examples, you will learn how to build real interface patterns with less code, fewer dependencies, and a stronger focus on accessibility, performance, and maintainability.You will explore features such as :has(), native dialogs, accordions, sliders, counters, dark mode, smooth scrolling, form validation, border animations, view transitions, motion paths, and mask effects. The book also introduces newer browser features like popovers, anchor positioning, scroll-driven animations, customizable selects, and CSS carousels.The goal is not to avoid JavaScript at all costs. It is to use it when it actually adds value, and not by default. By the end of the book, you will have a clearer sense of what the platform can handle today and how to build interfaces that are lighter, cleaner, and more resilient.What you will learnApply the Rule of Least Power in real UI decisionsChoose modern HTML and CSS over JS where it's sufficientBuild lightweight, accessible interfaces in practiceUse modern CSS features like :has(), view transitions, motion paths, masks, popovers, and anchor positioningCreate UI patterns like dark mode, dialogs, accordions, smooth scrolling, custom selects, and carouselsImplement progressive enhancement in real projectsImprove performance by reducing unnecessary JSWho this book is forThis book is for people who build interfaces and want to rely less on JavaScript when they do not have to. It is aimed at front-end developers, designers who code, and curious CSS people who already know the basics and want to see how far modern HTML and CSS can really go. If you have ever added JavaScript out of habit for something the browser can already handle, this book will give you a different way to think about that.

Multithreaded JavaScript
Traditionally, JavaScript has been a single-threaded language. Nearly all online forum posts, books, online documentation, and libraries refer to the language as single threaded. Thanks to recent advancements in the language--such as the Atomics and SharedArrayBuffers objects and Web Workers in the browser--JavaScript is now a multi-threaded language. These features will go down as being the biggest paradigm shift for the world's most popular programming language.Multithreaded JavaScript explores the various features that JavaScript runtimes have at their disposal for implementing multithreaded programming, providing both practical real-world examples, as well as reference material.Learn what multithreaded programming is and how you can benefit from itUnderstand the differences between a web worker, a service worker, and a worker threadKnow when and when not to use threads in an applicationOrchestrate communication between threads by leveraging the Atomics objectBuild high-performance applications using the knowledge you gain from this bookBenchmark performance to learn if you'll benefit from multithreading
