Principles of Object Oriented Javascript - Notes

Notes on Object Oriented JavaScript

JavaScript is an extremely powerful but often not fully understood language. The world is moving from a client-server model towards a more client - less server model, and the little server side code that is written these days is also likely to have some flavor of js. Hence, its more important than ever to understand all of its features completely. One part of js that is often ignored is its object oriented features. Its ignored because in a traditional web application, you can often get away with writing procedural js code. But I have found that the more you understand oojs, the better your js development skills get. These are my notes from reading various books on Object Oriented JavaScript, organized by chapters.

Disclaimer

This is not intended to be a complete reference for js or any of its features. There are notes that I find useful to refer to when I want to brush up on oojs. Feel free to use as you may like, and contribute if you find this useful.
