JavaScript – the developer’s choice

I will be giving a talk on JavaScript, focusing on its internal mechanics and clarifying misconceptions. Despite its widespread use in web development, many developers and enthusiasts do not fully understand how JavaScript works behind the scenes. My goal is to bridge this gap and provide a comprehensive understanding of JavaScript’s core concepts and execution model.

Topics to be covered:

1. How JavaScript Executes Code

2. JavaScript is Single-Threaded (or is it?)

3. Memory Management and Garbage Collection

4. Closures and Lexical Scoping

5. Prototypal Inheritance

6. The DOM and Event Handling

7. JavaScript Modules

8. JavaScript and the Modern Web Ecosystem
