I've been using JavaScript professionally for about 12 years.
You're going to have to look for talks and really technical posts. Consider whitepapers and source code for JavaScript engines at this point. You'll probably want to start reading up on the things attached to JavaScript, rather than the language itself. Browser rendering, event loop, V8 things, garbage collection, etc.
I'm sure you've seen it, but things like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aGhZQkoFbQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aGhZQkoFbQ, and this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmE4OwHztCc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmE4OwHztCc
It might be time for you to start writing what you know about JavaScript.
- nujabe 6y agoI definitely wouldn't consider the first video 'advanced' material (an excellent talk btw), JavaScript event loop is something beginners should know about and intermediate developers know very well.
- azangru 6y agoAh, but do they know where in the event loop, for example, "microtasks" get executed as opposed to... I forget.. tasks? In other words, how execution of promises is different from the execution of setTimeout?
- quickthrower2 6y agoI was lucky enough to see this live - https://v8.dev/blog/elements-kinds https://v8.dev/blog/elements-kinds - but I recommend watching and reading for anyone. Half because is pretty interesting and accessible at the same time. And half because you might use it . Also Typescript is well worth learning.
- mosdl 6y agoThis. For example, classes are much easier to optimize for than json objects, which really hurts the functional programming and redux crowd.
