So far so good.

I’m still reading this book, but it’s a great book to learn js for front end web development. Many just cover syntax, but this one also teaches you how it’s used to give front ends functionality.

The book really does start at the beginner level and goes up!

This book is very good in introducing javascript and does accelerate all the way to some very advanced stuff that I will never understand. I recommend this book for the young hard working person that wants to code. It's a very good book for management. If you are in management you can learn a little code and understand that what you are asking your IT staff to complete might be a bit more difficult to complete that project than a couple days. I'm 72 years old and retired. And, what I learned is that this is more complicated than a passing hobby. I strongly suggest that the authors spend more time explaining IDE's and suggest a very simple easy to script IDE for beginners. The IDE's available for my new MAC were extremely unfriendly to the novice.

Best book on JS for beginners

I love this book.As a beginner I've been struggling to find good books on JS. Compared to languages like Python, there aren't many books around for beginners, and most recommended books are at least 5 years old. The most recommended one (starts with in "E"...) is super confusing and goes from easy to very hard to follow (for beginners) within the first 3 chapters. This book, however, is different.It's a true book for those new to Javascript and holds your hand, without insulting your intelligence, all the way. The in-chapter exercises are great for reinforcing learning, with end of chapter projects that are fun and practical and challenging in a way that doesn't make you want to rage quit and throw the book through your computer screen (like other books do). It provides detailed instructions on what is expected. The best part is that ALL the answers are at the back of the book for reference, so no frustrating googling or pulling answers from github.The code examples in the book are easy to follow, however sometimes it goes over two (or more) pages which can make it somewhat difficult to follow. This is a problem with most books though, and I wish they'd include line numbers to make it easier.The layout of the book makes it easy to reference and I find myself coming back to it to go over concepts and syntax again when building projects. Sure you can search online, but you can make notes in the book, which is why I love books and often find it more useful.In conclusion, if you're a noob, then you should DEFINITELY get this book. It's one of the most up-to-date books on the language (although for some reason they still use 'var' when 'let' and 'const' are deemed to be best practice these days, but it's not a deal-breaker since 'let' and 'const' best-practice is fairly recent and you'll encounter 'var' in the majority of code you'll come across.I love this book, and so will you.

Mostly excellent

What sets this book apart is that it offers so many practice exercises. They provide an excellent chance to see for yourself how the points illustrated in the text are put into practice, and they test how well you actually understand what you've read.At the same time, these practice exercises are also problematic. Especially further on in the book, they are not very clear about what the final web page should be able to do. They give step-by-step instructions that are sometimes confusing without knowing what the final objective is. Fortunately, the book provides answers to all exercises. But there again, the answers do not necessarily follow the instructions given in the text. I found myself just copying the answers and then analyzing them to see how JavaScript works.The book is not very expensive, and I'd still recommend it. Its coverage is excellent, and you can learn a lot from it even if you just copy the answers to the exercises.

Absolute favorite vanilla javascript book!

Beginner JS learner here. I have about 4 or so books on javascript and this is the most useful for getting started with vanilla js dom manipulation. it shows how html / css / js interact and give you an idea of how to make very basic pages using the three.there are answers to every challenges clearly laid out in the book. very very useful and easy to reference. can follow along on your own code editor (i used vs code).for beginners like myself, I'd say start with a more introductory book for js fundamentals, watch a few vids on html /css / js interact and then move into this once you know how to do easy algos (loops, if statements, data structures, etc). if the book is hard to follow or too boring, go back and learn more of the fundamentals first. it's very engaging and easy to learn from as long as you start w the right level of preparation.Best book ever. Most useful.

Worth Every Penny!

I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I like this book. I was previously trying to learn online and was having difficulty retaining the information. This book makes the subject matter much clearer. Everything is written in clear terms with a beginner in mind. The book is well laid out so you can quickly find any info you want when reviewing. The practice exercises, quizzes, and chapter projects help you test your knowledge and try out your newly learned skills. I highly recommend this book.
