Overview

Advanced JavaScript Concepts covers intricate details starting with execution contexts and hoisting, offering a deep understanding of global and functional contexts, the ‘this’ keyword, and variable and function hoisting. It explores: - Scope chains for variable resolution in nested functions and delves into closures, explaining their workings and practical applications. - Advanced object-oriented programming concepts like encapsulation, inheritance, and prototype chains, enabling the writing of efficient, maintainable code. - A complete professional project to create a typing test application, incorporating all learned concepts from modular design patterns to event handling. By course completion, students will confidently implement advanced JavaScript in real-world scenarios. This course is tailored for intermediate to advanced developers with prior JavaScript experience, aiming to deepen their language understanding. Key learning outcomes include analyzing and utilizing execution contexts and hoisting, implementing closures, designing applications with modular patterns, and developing a professional project to demonstrate advanced skills.

Syllabus

Execution Context - Hoisting - 'this'

In this module, we will delve into the complexities of execution context, hoisting, and the 'this' keyword, gaining a deeper understanding of how JavaScript code is executed and how different elements interact during execution.

Scope Chain

In this module, we will explore the scope chain in JavaScript, understanding how it determines the accessibility of variables based on their scope and the nested structure of functions. We will delve into how JavaScript resolves variables by traversing the scope chain, ensuring a solid grasp of this fundamental concept.

Closures

In this module, we will investigate closures, learning how they allow functions to access variables from an outer function even after the outer function has finished executing, and applying these concepts to solve practical problems.

Objects (Advanced): Encapsulation and Information Hiding

In this module, we will focus on advanced object-oriented programming concepts, specifically encapsulation and information hiding, using techniques like closures and IIFE to protect and manage data within objects.

Objects (Advanced): Inheritance and Prototype Chain

In this module, we will explore the advanced concepts of inheritance and the prototype chain in JavaScript, understanding how objects inherit properties and methods, and how to extend and clone objects.

Objects (Advanced): Objects Challenges

In this module, we will engage in a series of coding challenges designed to solidify your understanding of advanced object manipulation and inheritance, focusing on practical applications and problem-solving techniques.

Objects (Advanced): Singleton and Module Patterns

In this module, we will explore design patterns, particularly the Singleton and Module patterns, learning how to organize and manage code effectively to create maintainable and scalable JavaScript applications.

Functions (Advanced)

In this module, we will delve into advanced function concepts, understanding the object nature of functions and learning how to use call, apply, and bind methods to control function invocation and context.

Full Professional Project: Typing Test App

In this module, we will apply all the advanced JavaScript concepts learned in the course to build a full-fledged typing test application. We will cover everything from initial planning and design to modular implementation and generating results, culminating in a professional project that demonstrates your advanced JavaScript skills.
