This is 2016, and if you aren’t aboard the Javascript bullet train, you aren’t doing it right. I am writing this mostly as a rant, and this isn’t written for JS Ninjas, its for people like me who are coming to JS from C++, Java,etc and feeling very confused and lost. In a world where we proud ourselves in creating something in HTML5+JS, that runs on a modern quad-core system while delivering the performance that existed on 16-bit or even 8-bit systems with less than 10 MHz CPU’s – well in this world JS is going to stick around for a long time.

I started poking around HTML since I was in 7th grade. I wanted to make my own web pages so I was snooping around Google to see how that was possible. The first few lines of HTML that I wrote were most probably a link with a a:hover effect, When I opened my page on a browser and the mouseover effect worked, I remember being excited like the little kid I was, and even showing my brother what I had accomplished.
