Who this book is for

This book is intended for developers with prior knowledge of programming in any OOP language, with a reasonable background in web development and decent experience with JavaScript.

We're not going to go through basic programming constructs, such as conditionals, loops, boolean expressions, and similar things, which are common to all languages.

Also, we're not going to explain concepts of OOP.
