Douglas Crockford - JavaScript: The Good Parts
Even though this book is somewhat "aged" (it is from 2008), I know no better book where it is presented so well what is so interesting about JavaScript and how this language is so often misunderstood.
If after reading this book you still consider JavaScript as "objectively bad", so be it. But first read the arguments that are presented in this book.
- pdimitar 9y agoIt is very telling that you don't see the irony of the fact that a language needs a book titled "Language X: the good parts". Good tech mostly speaks for itself. When you need entire books to convince you that a language has good parts, then you know the language has a problem.
