JavaScript Garden

=================

2024 update: this project has not been actively maintained in years. The original author

[took the site down](https://github.com/BonsaiDen/JavaScript-Garden/commit/93278fbcafa569fd193f8784abc267e9db09c645) 

in 2022 (no judgement - updating it would be a big project!). At that point it was already long out of date, e.g. missing

the new language features from ES6 onwards.

Many excellent modern guides exist, e.g. [Eloquent Javascript](https://eloquentjavascript.net/), or

the [MDN guide](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript).

Thanks for all the maintainers and translators over the years!

-----

**JavaScript Garden** is a growing collection of documentation about the most 

quirky parts of the JavaScript programming language. It gives advice to 

avoid common mistakes, subtle bugs, as well as performance issues and bad 

practices that non-expert JavaScript programmers may encounter on their 

endeavours into the depths of the language.

JavaScript Garden does **not** aim to teach you JavaScript. Former knowledge

of the language is strongly recommended in order to understand the topics covered

in this guide. In order to learn the basics of the language, please head over to 

the excellent [guide][1] on the Mozilla Developer Network.

### The authors

This guide is the work of two lovely Stack Overflow users, [Ivo Wetzel][6]

(Original English Language Version) and [Zhang Yi Jiang][5] (Design), and

[many others](https://github.com/BonsaiDen/JavaScript-Garden/graphs/contributors)

who've worked hard to provide translations or fixes.

It was maintained by [Tim Ruffles](http://twitter.com/timruffles) from 2013-2020ish.

## Contributing

Please submit fixes and translations as [pull requests](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests).
