Mastering the Arcane Art of JavaScript-mancy

For many years has JavaScript been frown upon and look down on by many developers due to its quirky nature, obscure behaviors and many a one WTFs that populate its hairy APIs.

Frown upon no more! For with modern design patterns, libraries, tools and the long awaited JavaScript 6 Harmony (ES6, ES2015) writing JavaScript is now a pleasure.

Join me at the school of JavaScript-mancy as we travel along the modern landscape of writing JavaScript in 2015 and beyond, as we discover the organic evolution of this beautiful language and its thriving ecosystem, and delve in the latest features/spells/incantations of the JavaScript Arcana.

Jaime is a full stack web developer and UX designer who thinks it's weird to write about himself in the third person. During the past few years of his career he has been slowly but surely specializing in front-end development and user experience, and somewhere and some time along the way he fell in love with JavaScript. He still enjoys developing in the full stack though, bringing ideas to life, building things from nothingness, beautiful things that are a pleasure and a delight to use.

Jaime works as a consultant at Active Solution, builds his own products in his spare time and blogs at barbarianmeetscoding.com (long story that one). He loves spending time with his beloved Malin, drawing, writing, reading fantasy and sci-fi, and lifting heavy weights.
