It is important to CACHE selectors in variables
13. Advanced Javascript
Variable declaration:
-
let variableName(new in ECMAScript 6) /* its value can be altered -
const variableName(new in ECMAScript 6) /* it stands for constant, its value can't be altered once declared -
``/* are used instead of''or"". Allows us to avoid the "+" separation and elements and variables should be added with syntax${element} -
a**b/* it stands for a to the b potence -
element.padStart(param1,param2)/* param1 number of characters param2 are added before the value of element declared. The default param2 is" " -
.padEnd(param1,param2)/* Same as above but at the end -
.trimStart()/* eliminates empty spaces from the start of a variable -
.trimEnd()/* Same as above but from the end -
debugger;/* Stops running the code and opens console for a step by step check
Functions:
- Function declaration syntax:
const functionname=(param1,param2...) => action/* If there is an only return, there is no need to type "return" and if it's just one parameter, no need to add"()" - Currying:
const functionname= param1 => param2 => action/* To properly call function syntax is:functionname (param1)(param2) - Compose:
const functionname= (param2,param3) => param1 => param2(param3(param1))/* Being param2 and 3 functions y param1 a value. Executes a function inside a function executed with the initial param1
Arrays:
-
array.forEach(num=>{})/* For each element num of the array, executes the actions inside {} -
array.map(num=>{})/* For each element num in the array, executes actions inside {} and return needs to be specified since the return will be placed in a new array. -
array.filter(num=>{})/* For each element num of the array a condition is checked. If the value turns out true, it will be added to the new array. If none of the elements meet the condition, it will return an empty array. Return needs to be specified -
array.reduce((accumulator,num)=>{}, param3)/* Acumulates values of the operation performed in previous elements, param3 beinf the initial value of the acumulator -
array.concat(param1)/* Concats param1 to the array -
array.includes('param1')/* Verifies the array includes param1 -
array.flat(param1)/* Elminates the nested arrays to a param1 level -
array.flatMap(param1=>{})/* For each element num, the operation inside {} is performed and the array is lowered to a level 1 nesting -
array.fromEntries/* Turns the array into an object, making the first element of the array the property and the second the value of such property
Objects:
-
const(/let) {property1, property2,...} = obj/* Given an object obj, keeps the value of the properties in new variables property1, property2,...etc -
{...obj}/* Creates a clone object of the object obj -
Object.assign(param1,param2)/* Clones the lements of an object param2 in an object param1 -
Object.values(obj)/* Takes the values of the properties of an object obj -
Object.entries(obj)/* returns an array with property,value of each element of an object obj /*.entriesand.valuescan be used with array methods such as.map,.forEach, etc. -
this/* when using this parameter, the method/action is applied exclusively to the element in which "this" has been summoned.
Classes:
- Class creator syntax:
Classname {
constructor (param1,param2){
this.param1= value;
this.param2= value2;
}
classmethod(){
}
}
-
Create class object syntax:
new Classname(param1,param2) -
Class extention syntax:
Classextension extends Classname {
constructor(param1,param2){
super(param1,param2);
}
classextensionmethod(){
}
}
/* You utilize a class when we are planning to create several objects with similar propperties /* A class extention is used when those several objects can contain properties or categories with specific properties and methods, while respecting the initial constructor.
Loops:
- for of:
for (param1 of array){}/* It's a for loop in an array and an action over the element number param1 in an array array - for in:
for (param1 in obj) {}/* It's a for loop of the properties and an action over the property number param1 in an object obj
/* both arrays and strings are iterable in JS /* for of cannot be used in objects, but for in can be used in arrays, you get the index number as a return

15. Developer Environment
Popular code editors / IDE:
Development Environment Stack
16. Git + Github + Open Source Projects
Install Git:
- https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/install-git#windows
- https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/install-git
Git GUI:
Git Commands:
git clone “https:……”
git remote -v
git remote add url “https:……”
git remote add upstream “https:……”
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/master
git status
git add “filename”
git add .
git commit –m”message”
git push
git pull
git branch
git branch “name”
git checkout “name”
git merge “name”
Once you are in your forked project directory in your command prompt....
-
Type git remote -v and press Enter. You'll see the current configured remote repository for your fork.
a.
git remote -vb.
origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (fetch)c.
origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (push) -
Type git remote add upstream, and then paste the URL you would copy from the original repository if you were to do a git clone. Press Enter. It will look like this:
git remote add upstream https://github.com/zero-to-mastery/PROJECT_NAME.git -
To verify the new upstream repository you've specified for your fork, type
git remote -vagain. You should see the URL for your fork as origin, and the URL for the original repository as upstream. -
Now, you can keep your fork synced with the upstream repository with a few Git commands. One simple way is to do the below command from the master of your forked repository:
git pull upstream master

18. NPM + NPM Scripts
npm init
npm install
npm install –g browserify
Install node and npm:
- https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm
- https://nodejs.org/es/ (Though with newer version of node, npm come pre-installed. So you don't need to do that separately)
Check node and npm installed on your system by:
node -v
npm -v
If any of these command result in error then that (node/npm) deosen't installed on your system.

20. HTTP/JSON/AJAX + Asynchronous Javascript
There are many ways for making an API call, but the one I recommend using is Axios. Here is why [https://medium.com/@thejasonfile/fetch-vs-axios-js-for-making-http-requests-2b261cdd3af5]
Other available options are Fetch API or G(old) XMLHttpRequests.
Axios is a Javascript library used to make HTTP requests from node.js or XMLHttpRequests from the browser that also supports the ES6 Promise API.
Features
- Make XMLHttpRequests from the browser
- Make http requests from node.js
- Supports the Promise API
- Intercept request and response
- Transform request and response data
- Cancel requests
- Automatic transforms for JSON data
- Client side support for protecting against XSRF
Installing
Using npm:
$ npm install axios
Using bower:
$ bower install axios
Using yarn:
$ yarn add axios
Using jsDelivr CDN:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>
Using unpkg CDN:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>

25. FINAL PROJECT: SmartBrain Back-End -- Server
Change localhost:
If you don't want set environment variable, other option - modify scripts part of package.json from:
"start": "react-scripts start"
Linux (tested on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04) and MacOS (tested by @aswin-s on MacOS Sierra 10.12.4) to:
"start": "PORT=3006 react-scripts start"
or (maybe) more general solution by @IsaacPak to:
"start": "export PORT=3006 react-scripts start"
Windows @JacobEnsor solution to:
"start": "set PORT=3006 && react-scripts start"
Front-end and back-end connection:
-
https://www.npmjs.com/package/cors
npm install cors
Front-end:
fetch('http://localhost:3000/image', {
method: 'put',
headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
body: JSON.stringify({
id: this.state.user.id
})
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(count => {
this.setState(Object.assign(this.state.user, { entries:count}))
})
Back-end:
const cors = require('cors')
app.use(cors());

Environmental variables:
PORT
On terminal:
bash
-->PORT-3000 node server.js
On server.js:
const PORT = process.env.PORT
app.listen(PORT, ()=>{
console.log(`app is running on port ${PORT}`);
})
DATABASE
On terminal:
bash
-->DATABASE_URL-123 node server.js
On server.js:
const DATABASE_URL = process.env. DATABASE_URL
app.listen(3000, ()=>{
console.log(`app is running on port ${ DATABASE_URL }`);

OTHER OPTION
On terminal:
fish
-->env DATABASE_URL-‘hello’ node server.js
Deploy apps:
Heroku:
Not the best one:
Commands for heroku on backend folder: Install heroku:
npm install -g heroku
heroku login
heroku create
In the terminal there will be a URL : ” https://limitless-bastion-10041.herokuapp.com/”
git remote –v
git push origin master
heroku git: remote –a limitless-bastion-10041
Changes required in:
- BACK END: PORT in server.js needs to be changed by an environment variable
- FRONT END: fetch URL needs to be changed by the URL of HEROKU + “:3000”
git push heroku master
