Zusatztext Eloquent Javascript 3rd Edition is a worthy and much-needed update to the popular programming book. The fact that the book covers ES6 is worth a re-read, but the new edition goes above and beyond with new illustrations, a new exercise, and tighter writing. The 3rd edition of the book is substantially improved from its predecessors and worthy of the hype. Books on Code "It's a smart, lean JavaScript tutorial that exists as an in-print book from No Starch Press, and a free, nicely formatted web version . . . easily the most enjoyable read in this list. And there are so many useful insights that you won't be bored." Matthew MacDonald, Medium's Young Coder This is all the JavaScript knowledge you'll need to hit the ground running in a JavaScript project . . . it's a book I will be frequently revisiting as it has put JavaScript back on my radar.
