JavaScript for the C# Developer
With the proliferation of thin-client web applications, sooner or later every C# programmer will likely have to write some JavaScript. What could go wrong? After all, it's just another language based on the C syntax and every C# developer knows that without thinking. This session explores the very real mistakes C# developers make when writing JavaScript code and how to avoid them. Starting with an exploration of types in JavaScript, moving through the object and inheritance model (no classical class model here), and an in-depth discussion of functions. We’ll wrap up with some common anti-patterns all C# developers encounter and how to solve them. By the end of the session you will have a better understanding of why JavaScript has more in common with a functional language than an object-oriented one, and will be able to write good JavaScript code, avoiding the common pitfalls.
