#javascript currying

As developers, we have more and more JavaScript libraries to choose from and, of course, the option not to use any at all. Over time, we each tend to favor one method of coding over another. For those who’d like to learn more about jQuery, one of the more popular libraries, here’s a crash course written with code-savvy web designers in mind.

Ender.js – The open submodule library

Ender is a full featured package manager for your browser

It allows you to search, install, manage, and compile front-end JavaScript packages and their dependencies for the web. We like to think of it as NPM‘s little sister.

Ender is not a JavaScript library

It’s not a jQuery replacement. It’s not even a static asset. It’s a tool for making the consumption of front-end JavaScript packages dead…

JavaScript currying leads to clever programming. It is also one of the places in JavaScript where functional programming wins over object oriented practices. Sometime last year Dan Webb wrote a post on callbacks and partial application which essentially uses a pattern technique called currying. In his article, he gives a few examples which essentially prove the usefulness of currifed JavaScript.

Asynchronous method queue chaining in JavaScript. It’s an extremely popular pattern these days in JavaScript. It’s easily achieved by continually returning a reference to the same object between linked methods. However one technique you don’t often see is queuing up a chain of methods, asynchronously, by which functions can be linked together independent of a callback.

This discussion, of course,…
