Here are three upcoming changes to JavaScript that you’ll love

Let’s take a look at some useful upcoming features in JavaScript. You’ll see their syntax, links to keep up to date with their progress, and we’ll write a small test suite to show how to begin using these proposals today!

Let’s Compose Promises!

Today we’re going to combine two of the most useful tools that a JavaScript developer has in his or her tool belt. Promises and Function Composition.

Function Composition with Lodash

Have you been reading JavaScript posts lately? Maybe you’ve noticed that functional programming is really popular right now. It’s a really powerful way to program, but can be overwhelming to get started with. Thankfully the most popular NPM package (with 48 million downloads this month) has a very useful functional programming package to help us get started!

Continuous deployment for Node.js on DigitalOcean

Continuous Integration and Deployment have become important parts of the software development cycle. It’s important to spend your time creating features, and you don’t want to worry about deploying your code. Plus, the more you are manually deploying code, the more likely you are to make an error. Today we will automate the process of running our tests and deploying our Node.js app to DigitalOcean.

Three reasons I avoid anonymous JS functions like the plague

You’re bound to see an anonymous function whenever your read code. Sometimes they are called lambdas, sometimes anonymous functions, either way, I think they’re bad.
