Saturday 29 April 2017 Talk: A Browse Through ES6

ES6 is (almost) the most recent version of the language most commonly known as Javascript. Its publication in 2015 was the first update to Javascript since 2009 and brought a number of pretty radical revisions to both language and library.

This session takes a look at some of the most significant features, the impact they have on the way we write Javascript, how we can start using them today, why we should, and a look forward to Javascript’s future evolution.

I presented this talk at ACCU Conference 2017.

• Slides and notes (it's a reveal.js deck, so press 'S' to get the speaker notes)
• Source of the Java Streams/.NET Linq style library
• A longer discussion of the library
• The coroutines sample source
• I first gave this talk, in a rather shorter form (but with a more energetic delivery) at Nor(DEV):con in February 2016. That was also captured for posterity and is available on InfoQ
