JavaScript/Notes/
You down with OOP? - Yeah you know me!
Introduction
When: Every Friday night from 7:00PM — 8:45PM.
Teacher: Garrett Smith
Hearken to the days of view-source:
! In this course, I'll explore Object Oriented JavaScript as it pertains to client side web programming. And some DOM stuff.
Resources Web Development Resources
JavaScript/Notes/Debugging
Browsers provide debuggers that can be launched from a breakpoint, the application's menu, or the debugger keyword in the script.
ClassName Swap
Event Delegation and the Cascade.
Functions
Functions are callable objects with an internal [[Scope]] property. Learn how to call functions and pass functions to other functions, where they can be later called.
Array Methods added to EcmaScript 5
Sort, map, filter, and more.
Prototype
The prototype chain is used for reading property resolution.
User-defined functions can be used to construct new objects. Objects have, on their prototype chain, the constructor's prototype.
Custom Events
Fire custom events from your own user-defined objects.
Scope Chain and Identifier Resolution
This class covers closures.
Singleton
Singleton with information hiding in function scope.
Interface-Based Design
Two interfaces with a similar signature. The Devil's in the details -- encapsulate them!
Event Notification System
An abstract system for event notification.
DOM Events Adapter
An system for DOM event notification, designed to handle delegation and specific event models.
Factory
The Factory pattern, the Decorator pattern, newApply, and the holy grail: Abstract Factory.
Parameter Object
Passing around lists of parameters? Typechecking arguments? Stop doing that. Here's how to make your code clearer and less error-prone.
Type Conversion
There are five primitive types in JavaScript: Null, Undefined, Boolean, String, Number. Various operations in JavaScript require conversion to and from primitive values.
