JavaScript the Hard Parts: Callbacks & Higher Order Functions @ Double Dutch

Learn and build with the hard parts of JavaScript through intuitive lectures and pair-programming

In JavaScript the Hard Parts, we cover callbacks, higher-order functions (functional programming with JavaScript), object-oriented programming with JavaScript, closure, scope and execution context

This week for Javascript - The Hard Parts (Part 1 of 2), we cover Callbacks and Higher Order Functions

This includes how to handle or recreate the functions:

• map • reduce • forEach This is a concept that 80% of JavaScript engineers do not understand but are at the core of every single successful application

This is possible because we'll understand the essence of these tough concepts and then switch into pair-programming through the challenges to cement the concepts

The evening session is comprised of:

6:00 - 6:15pm: Meet your future pair programming partner.

6:15 - 6:45pm: Core JavaScript concept for the challenge and introduction to the secret hack for learning to code - pair-programming.

6:45 - 7:30pm: Pair-programming.

Bring a friend who'd like to build and you can pair program together.

Price: Always free
