Douglas Crockford: Advanced JavaScript




In this presentation (the third of a three-part series) Douglas Crockford looks closely at code patterns from which JavaScript programmers can choose in authoring their applications. He compares familiar constructs like the Pseudoclassical Pattern with more unique patterns like the Parasitic Pattern that (he argues) run more “with the grain” of JavaScript.

  1. 1:02 – Avoiding obfuscation because it COULD introduce bugs is not respectful to your customers/users' time. I really don't like his point on that one. Maybe in 2006 the tools weren't as good, so perhaps it's more defensible, but still. I've only once in years seen an obfuscation related bug, and that was a forgotten semicolon.
