A bit more advanced concepts, but essentials to know if you want to write programs that run correctly as you want.
In this unit I collected a whole range of topics that I would call “moderately complex”, so not something I would explain on day 1 to a beginner JavaScript developer, but extremely important.
Knowing those topics very well can be a huge difference in your day to day work, transforming frustration and confusion into productive and efficient code.
We’ll talk about scope, shadowing, hoisting, closures, and the event loop.
