This tutorial covers the basics of ES6 in JavaScript, including:
let
andconst
declarations- Template strings
- Arrow functions
- Rest and spread operators
- Destructuring
- Sets and Maps
- Async/await
In addition to the basics, the tutorial also covers Classes and Modules, as well as some of the basics of DOM manipulation.
To get started with this tutorial, you will need a code editor and a web browser. Any modern code editor should work, such as Visual Studio Code or Sublime Text. You will also need a web browser to view the results of your code.
The tutorial is divided into several files:
ES6.js
: Contains the code for the ES6 features covered in the tutorialmodules.js/default.js/imports.js
: Contains the code for the Modules section of the tutorialoop.js
: Contains the code for the Classes and OOP section of the tutorialindex.html
: Contains the code for the DOM manipulation section of the tutorial
You can view the results of the code by opening each file in a web browser or by running the code in a code editor with a JavaScript runtime.
Here is an example of let
and const
declarations in action:
if (true) {
let x = 10;
console.log(x); // 10
}
console.log(x); // ReferenceError: x is not defined
if (true) {
var y = 10;
console.log(y); // 10
}
console.log(y); // 10
And here is an example of template strings in action:
const user = "John";
const age = 30;
const msg = Hi, my name is ${user} and I am ${age} years old.;
console.log(msg); // Hi, my name is John and I am 30 years old.
