1 JavaScript JavaScript, Landing
JavaScript (JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, programming language with first-class functions. Most well-known as the scripting language for Web pages, many non-browser environments also use it, such as node.js and Apache CouchDB. JS is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm, dynamic scripting language, supporting object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles. Read more about JavaScript.
2 A re-introduction to JavaScript (JS tutorial) CodingScripting, Intermediate, Intro, JavaScript, Learn, Tutorial
Why a re-introduction? Because JavaScript is notorious for being the world's most misunderstood programming language. It is often derided as being a toy but, beneath its layer of deceptive simplicity, powerful language features await. JavaScript is now used by an incredible number of high-profile applications, showing that deeper knowledge of this technology is an important skill for any web or mobile developer.
3 About JavaScript Beginner, Introduction, JavaScript
JavaScript® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, and is best known as the scripting language for Web pages, but it's used in many non-browser environments as well. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.
4 Closures Closure, Intermediate, JavaScript
Closures are functions that refer to independent (free) variables. In other words, the function defined in the closure 'remembers' the environment in which it was created.
5 Concurrency model and Event Loop Advanced, JavaScript
JavaScript has a concurrency model based on an "event loop". This model is quite different than the model in other languages like C or Java.
6 Enumerability and ownership of properties JavaScript
Enumerable properties are those properties whose internal [[Enumerable]] flag is set to true, which is the default for properties created via simple assignment or via a property initializer (properties defined via Object.defineProperty and such default [[Enumerable]] to false). Enumerable properties show up in for...in loops unless the property's name is a Symbol. Ownership of properties is determined by whether the property belongs to the object directly and not to its prototype chain. Properties of an object can also be retrieved in total. There are a number of built-in means of detecting, iterating/enumerating, and retrieving object properties, with the chart showing which are available. Some sample code follows which demonstrates how to obtain the missing categories.
7 Equality comparisons and sameness Comparison, Equality, Intermediate, JavaScript, SameValue, SameValueZero, Sameness
Briefly, double equals will perform a type conversion when comparing two things; triple equals will do the same comparison without type conversion (by simply always returning false if the types differ); and Object.is will behave the same way as triple equals, but with special handling for NaN and -0 and +0 so that the last two are not said to be the same, while Object.is(NaN, NaN) will be true. (Comparing NaN with NaN ordinarily—i.e., using either double equals or triple equals—evaluates to false, because IEEE 754 says so.) Do note that the distinction between these all have to do with their handling of primitives; none of them compares whether the parameters are conceptually similar in structure. For any non-primitive objects x and y which have the same structure but are distinct objects themselves, all of the above forms will evaluate to false.

This page lists all MDN JavaScript pages along with their summary and tags.
9 Inheritance and the prototype chain Inheritance, Intermediate, JavaScript, OOP
JavaScript is a bit confusing for developers experienced in class-based languages (like Java or C++), as it is dynamic and does not provide a class implementation per se (the class keyword is introduced in ES6, but is syntactical sugar, JavaScript remaining prototype-based).
10 Introduction to Object-Oriented JavaScript Constructor, Encapsulation, Inheritance, Intermediate, JavaScript, Members, Namespace, OOP, Object, Object-Oriented
Object-oriented to the core, JavaScript features powerful, flexible OOP capabilities. This article starts with an introduction to object-oriented programming, then reviews the JavaScript object model, and finally demonstrates concepts of object-oriented programming in JavaScript. This article does not describe the newer syntax for object-oriented programming in ECMAScript 6.
11 JavaScript Guide Guide, JavaScript, l10n:priority
The JavaScript Guide shows you how to use JavaScript and gives an overview of the language. If you want to get started with JavaScript or programming in general, consult the articles in the learning area. If you need exhaustive information about a language feature, have a look at the JavaScript reference.
12 Control flow and error handling Beginner, Guide, JavaScript
JavaScript supports a compact set of statements, specifically control flow statements, that you can use to incorporate a great deal of interactivity in your application. This chapter provides an overview of these statements.
13 Details of the object model Guide, Intermediate, JavaScript, Object
JavaScript is an object-based language based on prototypes, rather than being class-based. Because of this different basis, it can be less apparent how JavaScript allows you to create hierarchies of objects and to have inheritance of properties and their values. This chapter attempts to clarify the situation.
14 Expressions and operators Beginner, Expressions, Guide, JavaScript, Operators, beginner
This chapter describes JavaScript's expressions and operators, including assignment, comparison, arithmetic, bitwise, logical, string, ternary and more.
15 Functions Beginner, Functions, Guide, JavaScript, beginner
Functions are one of the fundamental building blocks in JavaScript. A function is a JavaScript procedure—a set of statements that performs a task or calculates a value. To use a function, you must define it somewhere in the scope from which you wish to call it.
16 Grammar and types Guide, JavaScript
This chapter discusses JavaScript's basic grammar, variable declarations, data types and literals.
17 Indexed collections Guide, JavaScript, Method
This chapter introduces collections of data which are ordered by an index value. This includes arrays and array-like constructs such as Array objects and TypedArray objects.
18 Introduction Guide, JavaScript
This chapter introduces JavaScript and discusses some of its fundamental concepts.
19 Iterators and generators Guide, Intermediate, JavaScript
Processing each of the items in a collection is a very common operation. JavaScript provides a number of ways of iterating over a collection, from simple for loops to map() and filter(). Iterators and Generators bring the concept of iteration directly into the core language and provide a mechanism for customizing the behavior of for...of loops.
20 Keyed collections Collections, Guide, JavaScript, Map, set
This chapter introduces collections of data which are ordered by a key; Map and Set objects contain elements which are iterable in the order of insertion.
21 Loops and iteration Guide, JavaScript, Loop, Syntax, loop
Loops offer a quick and easy way to do something repeatedly. This chapter of the JavaScript Guide introduces the different iteration statements available to JavaScript.
22 Meta programming Guide, JavaScript, Proxy, Reflect
Starting with ECMAScript 6, JavaScript gains support for the Proxy and Reflect objects allowing you to intercept and define custom behavior for fundamental language operations (e.g. property lookup, assignment, enumeration, function invocation, etc). With the help of these two objects you are able to program at the meta level of JavaScript.
23 Numbers and dates Guide, JavaScript
This chapter introduces how to work with numbers and dates in JavaScript.
24 Regular Expressions Guide, Intermediate, JavaScript, Reference, RegExp, Regular Expressions, regex
Regular expressions are patterns used to match character combinations in strings. In JavaScript, regular expressions are also objects. These patterns are used with the exec and test methods of RegExp, and with the match, replacesearch, and split methods of String. This chapter describes JavaScript regular expressions.
25 Text formatting Guide, JavaScript
This chapter introduces how to work with strings and text in JavaScript.
26 Working with objects Beginner, Comparing object, Constructor, Document, Guide, JavaScript, Object, beginner
JavaScript is designed on a simple object-based paradigm. An object is a collection of properties, and a property is an association between a name (or key) and a value. A property's value can be a function, in which case the property is known as a method. In addition to objects that are predefined in the browser, you can define your own objects. This chapter describes how to use objects, properties, functions, and methods, and how to create your own objects.
27 JavaScript data types and data structures Beginner, JavaScript, Types, beginner
Programming languages all have built-in data structures, but these often differ from one language to another. This article attempts to list the built-in data structures available in JavaScript and what properties they have; these can be used to build other data structures. When possible, comparisons with other languages are drawn.
28 JavaScript language resources Advanced, JavaScript
ECMAScript is the scripting language that forms the basis of JavaScript. ECMAScript is standardized by the ECMA International standards organization in the ECMA-262 and ECMA-402 specifications. The following ECMAScript standards have been approved or are being worked on:
29 JavaScript reference JavaScript
This part of the JavaScript section on MDN serves as a repository of facts about the JavaScript language. Read more about this reference.
30 About this reference JavaScript
The JavaScript reference serves as a repository of facts about the JavaScript language. The entire language is described here in detail. As you write JavaScript code, you'll refer to these pages often (thus the title "JavaScript reference"). If you're learning JavaScript, or need help understanding some of its capabilities or features, check out the JavaScript guide.
31 Classes Classes, Constructors, ECMAScript6, Inheritance, Intermediate, JavaScript
JavaScript classes are introduced in ECMAScript 6 and are syntactical sugar over JavaScript's existing prototype-based inheritance. The class syntax is not introducing a new object-oriented inheritance model to JavaScript. JavaScript classes provide a much simpler and clearer syntax to create objects and deal with inheritance.
32 constructor Classes, ECMAScript6, JavaScript
The constructor method is a special method for creating and initializing an object created with a class.
33 extends Classes, ECMAScript6, JavaScript
The extends keyword is used in a class declarations or class expressions to create a class with a child of another class.
34 static Classes, ECMAScript6, JavaScript
The static keyword defines a static method for a class.
35 Deprecated and obsolete features Deprecated, JavaScript, Obsolete
This page lists features of JavaScript that are deprecated (that is, still available but planned for removal) and obsolete (that is, no longer usable).
36 The legacy Iterator protocol JavaScript, Legacy Iterator
Firefox, prior to version 26 implemented another iterator protocol that is similar to the standard ES2015 Iterator protocol.
37 Expressions and operators JavaScript, Operators
This chapter documents all the JavaScript language operators, expressions and keywords.
38 Arithmetic operators JavaScript, Operator, operator
Arithmetic operators take numerical values (either literals or variables) as their operands and return a single numerical value. The standard arithmetic operators are addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/).
39 Array comprehensions JavaScript, Non-standard, Operator, Reference, operator
The array comprehension syntax is a JavaScript expression which allows you to quickly assemble a new array based on an existing one. Comprehensions exist in many programming languages.
40 Assignment operators JavaScript, Operator, operator
An assignment operator assigns a value to its left operand based on the value of its right operand.
41 Bitwise operators JavaScript, Operator, Reference, operator
Bitwise operators treat their operands as a sequence of 32 bits (zeroes and ones), rather than as decimal, hexadecimal, or octal numbers. For example, the decimal number nine has a binary representation of 1001. Bitwise operators perform their operations on such binary representations, but they return standard JavaScript numerical values.
42 Comma operator JavaScript, Operator, operator
The comma operator evaluates each of its operands (from left to right) and returns the value of the last operand.
43 Comparison operators JavaScript, Operator, Reference, operator
JavaScript has both strict and type–converting comparisons. A strict comparison (e.g., ===) is only true if the operands are of the same type and the contents match. The more commonly-used abstract comparison (e.g. ==) converts the operands to the same type before making the comparison. For relational abstract comparisons (e.g., <=), the operands are first converted to primitives, then to the same type, before comparison.
44 Conditional (ternary) Operator JavaScript, Operator, operator
The conditional (ternary) operator is the only JavaScript operator that takes three operands. This operator is frequently used as a shortcut for the if statement.
45 Destructuring assignment Destructuring, ECMAScript6, JavaScript, Operator, operator
The destructuring assignment syntax is a JavaScript expression that makes it possible to extract data from arrays or objects into distinct variables.
46 Expression closures Functions, JavaScript, Reference
Expression closures are a shorthand function syntax for writing simple functions.
47 Generator comprehensions Iterator, JavaScript, Non-standard, Reference
The generator comprehension syntax is a JavaScript expression which allows you to quickly assemble a new generator function based on an existing iterable object. Comprehensions exist in many programming languages.
48 Grouping operator JavaScript, Operator, Primary Expressions, operator
The grouping operator ( ) controls the precedence of evaluation in expressions.
49 Legacy generator function expression JavaScript, Legacy Iterator, Reference, Référence
The function keyword can be used to define a legacy generator function inside an expression. To make the function a legacy generator, the function body should contain at least one yield expression.
50 Logical Operators JavaScript, Operator, operator
Logical operators are typically used with Boolean (logical) values. When they are, they return a Boolean value. However, the && and || operators actually return the value of one of the specified operands, so if these operators are used with non-Boolean values, they may return a non-Boolean value.
51 Object initializer ECMAScript 2015, ECMAScript6, JSON, JavaScript, Literal, Methods, Object, Primary Expression, computed, mutation, properties
Objects can be initialized using new Object(), Object.create(), or using the literal notation (initializer notation). An object initializer is a list of zero or more pairs of property names and associated values of an object, enclosed in curly braces ({}).
52 Operator precedence JavaScript, Operator, operator, precedence
Operator precedence determines the order in which operators are evaluated. Operators with higher precedence are evaluated first.
53 Property accessors JavaScript, Operator, operator
Property accessors provide access to an object's properties by using the dot notation or the bracket notation.
54 Spread operator ECMAScript6, Iterator, JavaScript, Operator, operator
The spread operator allows an expression to be expanded in places where multiple arguments (for function calls) or multiple elements (for array literals) or multiple variables  (for destructuring assignment) are expected.
55 class expression Classes, ECMAScript6, Expression, JavaScript, Operator, Reference, operator
The class expression is one way to define a class in ECMAScript 2015 (ES6). Similar to function expressions, class expressions can be named or unnamed. If named, the name of the class is local the class body only. JavaScript classes are using prototype-based inheritance.
56 delete operator JavaScript, Operator, Unary, operator
The delete operator removes a property from an object.
57 function expression Function, JavaScript, Operator, Primary Expressions, operator
The function keyword can be used to define a function inside an expression.
58 function* expression ECMAScript6, Function, Iterator, JavaScript, Operator, Primary Expression, operator

59 in operator JavaScript, Operator, Relational Operators, operator
The in operator returns true if the specified property is in the specified object.
60 instanceof JavaScript, Object, Operator, Prototype, Relational Operators, instanceof, operator, prototype
The instanceof operator tests whether an object has in its prototype chain the prototype property of a constructor.
61 new operator JavaScript, Left-hand-side expressions, Operator, operator
The new operator creates an instance of a user-defined object type or of one of the built-in object types that has a constructor function.
62 new.target Classes, ECMAScript6, JavaScript, Reference
The new.target property lets you detect whether a function or constructor was called using the new operator. In constructors and functions instantiated with the new operator, new.target returns a reference to the constructor or function. In normal function calls, new.target is undefined.
63 super Classes, ECMAScript6, JavaScript, Left-hand-side expressions, Operator, operator
The super keyword is used to call functions on an object's parent.
64 this JavaScript, Operator, Primary Expressions, Reference, operator
A function's this keyword behaves a little differently in JavaScript compared to other languages. It also has some differences between strict mode and non-strict mode.
65 typeof JavaScript, Operator, Unary, operator
The typeof operator returns a string indicating the type of the unevaluated operand.
66 void operator JavaScript, Operator, Unary, operator
The void operator evaluates the given expression and then returns undefined.
67 yield ECMAScript6, Generators, Iterator, JavaScript, Operator, operator
The yield keyword is used to pause and resume a generator function (function* or legacy generator function).
68 yield* ECMAScript6, Generators, Iterable, Iterator, JavaScript, Operator, Reference, operator
The yield* expression is used to delegate to another generator or iterable object.
69 Functions Function, Functions, JavaScript
Generally speaking, a function is a "subprogram" that can be called by code external (or internal in the case of recursion) to the function. Like the program itself, a function is composed of a sequence of statements called the function body. Values can be passed to a function, and the function will return a value.
70 Arguments object Functions, JavaScript, arguments
The arguments object is an Array-like object corresponding to the arguments passed to a function.
71 arguments.callee Deprecated, Functions, JavaScript, Property, arguments
The arguments.callee property contains the currently executing function.

73 arguments.length Functions, JavaScript, Property, arguments
The arguments.length property contains the number of arguments passed to the function.
74 arguments[@@iterator]() Deprecated, Functions, JavaScript, Property, arguments
The initial value of the @@iterator property is the same function object as the initial value of the Array.prototype.values property.
75 Arrow functions ECMAScript6, Functions, Intermediate, JavaScript, Reference
An arrow function expression has a shorter syntax compared to function expressions and lexically binds the this value (does not bind its own thisargumentssuper, or new.target). Arrow functions are always anonymous.
76 Default parameters ECMAScript6, Functions, JavaScript
Default function parameters allow formal parameters to be initialized with default values if no value or undefined is passed.
77 Method definitions ECMAScript6, Functions, JavaScript, Object, Syntax
Starting with ECMAScript 2015 (ES6), a shorter syntax for method definitions on objects initializers is introduced. It is a shorthand for a function assigned to the method's name.
78 Rest parameters Functions, JavaScript, Rest, Rest parameters
The rest parameter syntax allows us to represent an indefinite number of arguments as an array.
79 getter ECMAScript5, ECMAScript6, Functions, JavaScript
The get syntax binds an object property to a function that will be called when that property is looked up.
80 setter ECMAScript5, Functions, JavaScript
The set syntax binds an object property to a function to be called when there is an attempt to set that property.
81 Iteration protocols ECMAScript6, Intermediate, Iterable, Iterator, JavaScript
One addition of ECMAScript 2015 (ES6) is not new syntax or a new built-in, but a protocol. This protocol can be implemented by any object respecting some conventions.

749 Strict mode ECMAScript5, JavaScript, Strict Mode
ECMAScript 5's strict mode is a way to opt in to a restricted variant of JavaScript. Strict mode isn't just a subset: it intentionally has different semantics from normal code. Browsers not supporting strict mode will run strict mode code with different behavior from browsers that do, so don't rely on strict mode without feature-testing for support for the relevant aspects of strict mode. Strict mode code and non-strict mode code can coexist, so scripts can opt into strict mode incrementally.
750 Transitioning to strict mode Advanced, JavaScript
ECMAScript 5 introduced strict mode which is now implemented in all major browsers (including IE10). While making web browsers interpret code as strict is easy (just add "use strict"; at the top of your source code), transitioning an existing code base to strict mode requires a bit more work.

754 JavaScript typed arrays Guide, JavaScript
JavaScript typed arrays are array-like objects and provide a mechanism for accessing raw binary data. As you may already know, Array objects grow and shrink dynamically and can have any JavaScript value. JavaScript engines perform optimizations so that these arrays are fast. However, as web applications become more and more powerful, adding features such as audio and video manipulation, access to raw data using WebSockets, and so forth, it has become clear that there are times when it would be helpful for JavaScript code to be able to quickly and easily manipulate raw binary data in typed arrays.
755 Memory Management JavaScript, memory
Low-level languages, like C, have low-level memory management primitives like malloc() and free(). On the other hand, JavaScript values are allocated when things (objects, strings, etc.) are created and "automatically" freed when they are not used anymore. The latter process is called garbage collection. This "automatically" is a source of confusion and gives JavaScript (and high-level languages) developers the impression they can decide not to care about memory management. This is a mistake.
