JavaScript Essentials

Variables and Data Types

// Variable declarations
let variableName = value;
const constantName = value;
var oldWayToDeclave = value;

// Data Types
// Number
let num = 42;
// String
let str = "Hello";
// Boolean
let bool = true;
// Array
let arr = [1, 2, 3];
// Object
let obj = {key: "value"};
// Null
let empty = null;
// Undefined
let notDefined;

Functions

// Function Declaration
function functionName(parameter1, parameter2) {
    return value;
}

// Arrow Function
const arrowFunction = (param1, param2) => {
    return value;
};

// Callback Function
array.forEach(item => {
    console.log(item);
});

// Async Function
async function fetchData() {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(url);
        const data = await response.json();
        return data;
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
}

Control Structures

// Conditionals
if (condition) {
    // code
} else if (anotherCondition) {
    // code
} else {
    // code
}

// Switch Statement
switch (value) {
    case 1:
        // code
        break;
    default:
        // code
}

// Loops
for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
    // code
}

while (condition) {
    // code
}

do {
    // code
} while (condition);

// Array Methods
array.forEach()
array.map()
array.filter()
array.reduce()
array.find()
array.some()
array.every()

DOM Manipulation

// Selecting Elements
document.getElementById('id')
document.getElementsByClassName('class')
document.querySelector('selector')
document.querySelectorAll('selector')

// Modifying Elements
element.innerHTML = 'content'
element.textContent = 'text'
element.setAttribute('attr', 'value')
element.style.property = 'value'

// Event Handling
element.addEventListener('event', function(e) {
    // code
});

// Creating/Removing Elements
document.createElement('tag')
parent.appendChild(element)
parent.removeChild(element)
element.remove()

AJAX and Fetch API

// Fetch API
fetch(url)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(data => {
        // Handle data
    })
    .catch(error => {
        // Handle error
    });

// Async/Await version
async function getData() {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(url);
        const data = await response.json();
        return data;
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
}

Error Handling

try {
    // Code that might throw an error
} catch (error) {
    // Handle error
} finally {
    // Always executed
}

// Custom Error
throw new Error('Custom error message');

ES6+ Features

// Destructuring
const { property } = object;
const [first, second] = array;

// Spread Operator
const newArray = [...oldArray];
const newObject = {...oldObject};

// Template Literals
const message = `Hello ${name}`;

// Classes
class ClassName {
    constructor(param) {
        this.property = param;
    }

    method() {
        // code
    }
}

// Modules
export const function;
import { function } from './module';

Remember to:

  1. Practice regularly
