JavaScript Shinies: The Complete Collection

For a number of months now I’ve been writing a series of articles about new and coming JavaScript features. This is the collected list.

The features here span from useful or neat optimisations to unlocking critical new functionality. They also range from pre-ES6 functionality and well-supported native code right through to bleeding-edge features that require a bit to get working.

To make the list easier to manage it will be roughly in order from ease of implementation, not necessarily time of publication.

All Features List

• Array Functions
• Destructuring
• Rest and Spread
• Async and Await
• Proxies
• Class Properties
• Decorators
• Pipeline Operator

The intention is to provide a reasonably comprehensive look at these technologies, with lots of examples, plenty of code, and a deeper examination of the benefits. It also looks at the different arguments and alternative usages, rather than just showing a few simple, artificial examples.
