About Modern Js Cheatsheet

This GitHub repository is a cheatsheet for JavaScript concepts that developers often encounter in modern projects and contemporary sample code. It explains each topic briefly, usually with a short code sample and a more detailed explanation, and links to external resources for further reading. Most of the concepts come from the ES2015 (ES6) language update.

The guide does not teach JavaScript from the beginning. It is aimed at developers with basic knowledge who find modern codebases hard to follow, for example when learning React. The author marks personal recommendations as such, and some of those tips may be debatable.
