The JavaScript open-source ebook

Some Drops of JavaScript is an open-source book that collects some useful, unknown, underrated JavaScript functions or stuff discovered, used, and learned during JavaScript's daily use.

You can read the work-in-progress book here: https://drops-of-javascript.hi-folks.dev/.

When using JavaScript frameworks/libraries daily (such as React, Vue, and Angular), it's easy to overlook the power of the language's core functionalities.

I usually look at the framework documentation or look for a package in Npm for the system, array, and string functions instead of using core functionalities provided by the language.

While I wrote this HTML-book, I also wrote some scripts to understand the functions' behavior better. You can find these examples here: https://github.com/roberto-butti/some-drops-of-javascript in the examples directory.
