HTML5DevConf: Marcus Phillips, "JavaScript Simplified: The Cliff's Notes" from Hack Reactor

Javascript Simplified: The Cliff's Notes Time: Tuesday @ 2:30pm | Room E-131 In JavaScript, it's common to have to guess a bit about exactly which object the keyword 'this' is going to be bound to.

If you'd like to level up from a "good enough" understanding of JavaScript's nuances to a "right on, every time" roadmap, join Marcus Phillips, who developed software and internal JavaScript curriculum at Twitter, and now teaches full-time at Hack Reactor, SF's premier school for software engineers.
