ECMAScript is going to be updated on an annual basis now, so it is easier to just use the year going forward.
Promises and arrow functions are ES2015 features, by the way. Already directly supported in a slight majority of the browsers in use: http://caniuse.com/#search=arrow http://caniuse.com/#search=arrow
- nojvek 10y agoWe should just call it ES15 and ES16.
- jsingleton 10y agoBut then what about ECMAScript 2024 and ECMAScript 2025?
- RobertKerans 10y agoES24 and ES25?
- jsingleton 10y agoYeah, I was referring to new feature in ES2015/ES6, but really I mean just new ES features in general are good. It's just the naming that's problematic. Even http://caniuse.com/#feat=arrow-functions http://caniuse.com/#feat=arrow-functions says: > See support for arrow functions (ECMAScript 6)
- dangoor 10y agoGotcha. Yeah, but hopefully the naming problem is temporary because it's a new change. If we see people referring to ES2017 as ES8, then we'll know the new naming had failed.
