Modern JavaScript and Software Front-End Development

Modern JavaScript is really a wide and moving target. You may have learned JavaScript five years ago and some of those techniques may be considered old by today's standards, just as you may know JavaScript techniques from 20+ years ago that are still considered modern best practices. My intent is to take you on a guide through JavaScript's various ins and outs to learn modern JavaScript as it's known today.
