      test
        ✔ assert

      1 passing (1ms)
       Methods equal ,  ok ,  assert ,  notEqual  checks if a value is true with (==) strictEqual ,  notStrictEqual  checks if equal with (===) deepStrictEqual ,  deepEqual ,  notDeepStrictEqual  checks if equal with (===) match ,  doesNotMatch  expects to match the regular expression ifError  test if value is  null  or  undefined throws ,  doesNotThrow ,  rejects ,  doesNotReject ,  fail  NOT clear what they do, check later ok() Same as  assert.equal()  and  assert()

Authorization vs authentication Authorization  - checking if password is correct. Authentication  - checking if the user is the same as authorized initially. Principle & data flow The client is authorized by comparing email and password against database.  On successful authorization the server issues an  access  and a  refresh  tokens for future authentication to avoid asking for credentials on every http request. Client stores  access  token in the local storage or memory and attaches it inside request headers for private api requests. Token is attached by 'request' interceptor in   axiosWithAuth . For protected api 'verifyToken' middleware verifies the token. If a token is ok, the request goes forward. If a token is bad (compromised or outdated) a response with status(401) is returned. Access  token is short and expires in 15 min. 'Response' interceptor in   axiosWithAuth  checks for 401 status and if it is 401, it makes additional request to update  access  token by presenting a  refresh  token, which has 30d expiry time. Refresh  token is stored in secured cookies on the login and also kept in database. If  refresh  token is valid and available in database, then updated  access   and refreshed  refresh  tokens are issued. axiosWithAuth  remembers the request with all parameters when it got 401 and after getting successful refreshed tokens it repeats initial http request. If  refresh  token is invalid or old, then  access  token is not issued, client is considered as unauthorized and new login is required. If a user is deleted from the database, he is still authorized, for short time until   access  token is expired (15 min). We should consider the duration of access token depending on sensitivity of our data. Tokens are also checked and refreshed at the initial app load in useEffect() on Main component mount. That's how we determine if a client logged in or out. For tokens we use JWT tokens, which contain encrypted (not hashed) payload (usually object with user email, role, etc...), validation time and a hash based on a secret keys, which are kept on server. Server can validate the token only if it knows the secrete keys. Secrete keys are kept in environment variables. server

 We often need to have a boolean  state  and switch between  true  &  false  to show/hide something on a screen  We can put such simple logic into a custom hook and make components a bit cleaner 
      // functions\useBoolean.js
      import { useState } from 'react'

      export default function useBoolean(initVal = true) {
        const [state, setState] = useState(initVal)
        const toggleState = () => setState(prevVal => !prevVal)
        return [state, toggleState]
      }
       Usage 
        import useBoolean from '/functions/useBoolean'

        function Component() {
          const [state, toggleState] = useBoolean(true)
          return (
            <>
              <div>{state.toString()}</div>
              <button onClick={toggleState}>Toggle state</button>
            </>
          )
        }
        Similar function can be found in the   react-use   package under the   useToggle   hook.

Usually we get data in bytes which is not convenient. Here is the function to convert it. 
      // /functions/bytesToSize
      function bytesToSize(bytes) {
        const sizes = ['Bytes', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB']
        if (bytes === 0) return 'n/a'
        const i = parseInt(Math.floor(Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(1024)), 10)
        if (i === 0) return `${bytes} ${sizes[i]})`
        return `${(bytes / (1024 ** i)).toFixed(1)} ${sizes[i]}`
      }
       
      function Component() {
        let variable = ''
        let i = 0
        for (i; i < 1000000; i++) {
          variable += 'string '
        }
        const sizeBytes = new Blob([JSON.stringify(variable)]).size

        return (
          <>
            Size of variable <b>{variable.slice(0, 30) + '...'}</b> (x{i} times) is <b>{sizeBytes} bytes</b>, which is <b>{bytesToSize(sizeBytes)}</b>
          </>
        )
      }

Installation Mocha  is a test framework for NodeJS. Chai  is assertion library for any test framework. npm i mocha chai --save-dev Add script into  package.json 
      "scripts": {
        "dev": "node exportAllPostsCreate && next dev",
        "build": "node exportAllPostsCreate && next build",
        "start": "next start",
        "lint": "next lint",
        "test": "jest --watch || true",
        "mocha": "mocha"
      }
       By default mocha looks for a  test  folder, where we can create test files. 
      // test/mytest.js

      const assert = require('chai').assert

      describe('basic tests', () => {
        it('should return 5', () => {
          assert.equal(2 + 3, 5)
        })
      })
       Run tests with command  npm run mocha  and see the output.

       id  parameter is the folder path in your project and we can group modules in separate files by returning chunk name and eventually get smaller chunks   More advanced logic we may also apply some custom automatic logic for manual splitting

              const estimatedSizeInKB = fileSize / 1024; // Convert bytes to KB
        
              if (estimatedSizeInKB <= 500) {

Class is useful for objects creation of the same kind. There is not 'real' classes in JS Classes in JS are based internally on constructor functions & prototypes Syntax 
            class MyClass {
              prop = value
              constructor() {} // NO commas
              method1() {} 
              method2() {}
              get something() {}
              set something(param) {}
              [Symbol.iterator]() {}
            }

            const obj = new MyClass() // create a new object with all the listed methods
       constructor()  method is called when object is created with  new  keyword, so we can initialize the object there constructor()  allows us to pass arguments into the class and assign it to an object MyClass  is technically a constructor function methods, getters and setters are written to  MyClass.prototype  of a constructor function Create 
            class User {
              constructor(name) { this.name = name }
              sayHi() { alert(this.name) }
              car = "bmw"
              dog = prompt("your dog breed?", "husky");
            }
          
            let user = new User("John") // object is created
            user.sayHi() // "John"
            user.car // "bmw"
            user.dog // "husky"
            typeof User // function
            User.prototype // {constructor: ƒ, sayHi: ƒ}
            alert(User) // class User { ... } // string representation starts with the “class…”
            // for...in // does not work by default, coz enumerable flag is false for all methods in the "prototype"
            // Classes always "use strict"
        Class expression 
            let User = class { sayHi() { alert("Hello") } }
            let User = class MyClass { sayHi() { alert("Hello") } } // Like a function, class expressions may have a name, it’s visible inside the class only
            let xxx = new User()
            xxx.sayHi() // Hello

            // return class in function on-demand
            function makeClass(phrase) {
              return class { sayHi() { alert(phrase) } }
            }
            let User = makeClass("Hello") // Create a new class
            new User().sayHi() // Hello
       Dynamic method name 
            class User {
              ['say' + 'Hi']() { alert("Hello") }
            }
            new User().sayHi() // Hello

            // but works with arrow function, which takes "this" from above
            class Button {

              click = () => alert(this.value)

       Methods chaining To enable methods chaining just return object's instance by returning  this

              hi() { console.log('hi'); return this; }
              bye() { console.log('bye'); return this; }

       Override constructor constructors in inheriting classes must call  super  before using  this super  calls parent method arrow functions do not have  super

       Static methods & properties can be accessed directly from the class without object instantiation (no idea why it is useful) they belong to the class they are not part of an instantiated object static properties and methods are inherited Static methods 
            class Man {

Cross-Origin requests fetch request to another web-site probably fails origin  – a domain/port/protocol Cross-origin requests  are sent to another domain (even a subdomain) or protocol or port Cross-origin requests are allowed, but with explicit allowance by the server, expressed in special headers that policy is called  CORS :  C ross- O rigin  R esource  S haring CORS exists to protect the internet from  hackers There are two types of cross-origin requests: safe requests & all others Safe requests A request is safe if it satisfies two conditions... has one of methods: GET or POST or HEAD allowed custom headers:  Accept ,  Accept-Language ,  Content-Language ,  Content-Type  with the value  application/x-www-form-urlencoded ,  multipart/form-data  or  text/plain 'safe' requests are sent right away, with the Origin header For requests w/o credentials (not sent by default), the server sets:  Access-Control-Allow-Origin  to  *  or same value as  Origin For requests with credentials, the server should set:  Access-Control-Allow-Origin  to same value as  Origin  and  Access-Control-Allow-Credentials  to  true JS automatically get access to response headers   Cache-Control ,  Content-Language ,  Content-Type ,  Expires ,  Last-Modified  or  Pragma Additional headers should be listed by server in  Access-Control-Expose-Headers  header Safe request can be made with a  <form>  or a  <script> , w/o any special methods CORS for safe requests If a request is cross-origin, the browser always adds the  Origin  header Origin: https://javascript.info  for HTTP-request Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *  for HTTP-response Response headers For cross-origin request, by default JS may access “safe” response headers Cache-Control ,  Content-Language ,  Content-Type ,  Expires ,  Last-Modified ,  Pragma There’s no  Content-Length  header in the list Additional permission is required to access that header to track the percentage of progress To grant JavaScript access to any other response header, the server must send the  Access-Control-Expose-Headers  header It contains a comma-separated list of unsafe header names that should be made accessible Bellow script is allowed to read the  Content-Length  and  API-Key  headers of the response 
      200 OK
      Content-Type:text/html; charset=UTF-8
      Content-Length: 12345
      API-Key: 2c9de507f2c54aa1
      Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://javascript.info
      Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Content-Length,API-Key
       Unsafe requests for “unsafe” requests browser firstly sends “preflight” request, to ask for permission Preflight request occurs “behind the scenes”, it’s invisible to JavaScript JS only gets the response to the main request or an error if there’s no server permission A preflight request uses the method 'OPTIONS', no body and two headers: Access-Control-Request-Method  method of the unsafe request Access-Control-Request-Headers  provides a comma-separated list of its unsafe HTTP-headers If the server agrees to serve the requests, it should respond with empty body, status 200 and headers... Access-Control-Allow-Origin  must be either  *  or the requesting origin to allow it Access-Control-Allow-Methods  must have the allowed method Access-Control-Allow-Headers  must have a list of allowed headers Access-Control-Max-Age  header may specify a number of seconds to cache the permissions. So the browser won’t have to send a preflight for subsequent requests that satisfy given permissions. Take a look at step-by-step example  https://javascript.info/fetch-crossorigin Credentials A cross-origin request from JavaScript by default does not bring credentials (cookies or HTTP authentication) but HTTP requests have them to include credentials in fetch and send cookies need to use  credentials: "include"  property option If the server agrees to accept the request with credentials, it should add... header  Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true  to the response, in addition to  Access-Control-Allow-Origin Access-Control-Allow-Origin  is prohibited from using a star  *  for requests with credentials, must provide the exact origin there 
      fetch('http://another.com', { credentials: "include" })
       Fetch page content  
      function FetchComponent() {
        return (
          <div>
            <button onClick={fetchPage}>Fetch this page content and put into console</button>
          </div>
        )
      }

      async function fetchPage() {

        const result = await response.text()

Custom hook is a function which should be called from the React code & not from the regular JS functions Custom hook function name should start from  "use" Custom hook can call other hooks, but normal functions can not Without custom hook Let's make a simple counter component as we normally do. 
      import { useState } from 'react'

      function WithoutCustomHook() {
        const [count, setCount] = useState(0)
        const increment = () => setCount(count + 1)
        const decrement = () => setCount(count - 1)
        const reset = () => setCount(0)

        return (
          <div>
            <div>Count: <b>{count}</b></div>
            <button onClick={increment}>Increment</button>&emsp;
            <button onClick={decrement}>Decrement</button>&emsp;
            <button onClick={reset}>Reset</button>
          </div>
        )
      }
        With custom hook Let's extract logic into a custom hook and use it inside a component. 
      // custom hook
      function useCounter(initVal = 0, step = 1) {
        const [count, setCount] = useState(initVal)
        const increment = () => setCount(count + step)
        const decrement = () => setCount(count - step)
        const reset = () => setCount(initVal)
        return [count, increment, decrement, reset]
      }
       Now the logic is not encapsulated inside the component, but can live in a separate file and can be utilized by multiple components. 
      function WithCustomHook() {
        const step = 5
        const startFrom = 10
        const [count, increment, decrement, reset] = useCounter(startFrom, step)
      
        return (
          <div>
            <div>Count: <b>{count}</b></div>
            <button onClick={increment}>Increment by {step}</button>&emsp;
            <button onClick={decrement}>Decrement by {step}</button>&emsp;
            <button onClick={reset}>Reset</button>
          </div>
        )
      }
        Note, we enhanced the hook by bringing  initVal  &  step  arguments.

Brilliant way to check errors and edge cases in function without really checking at all. We just wrap the function into  try...catch  block and return default value from  catch If function already exists just put it into wrapper Example 
      function sum(params) {
        try {
          return params.numbers.a + params.numbers.b
        } catch (error) {
          console.log(error)
          return 'no value for you'
        }
      }

      sum({ numbers: { a: 1, b: 2 } }) // 3
      sum({ a: 1, b: 2 }) // no value for you
       getValueOrDefault  wrapper 
      const getValueOrDefault = (getter, defaultValue) => {
        try {
          return getter()
        } catch (error) {
          console.log(error)
          return defaultValue
        }
      }

      function substract(params) {
        return params.numbers.a - params.numbers.b
      }

      getValueOrDefault(() => substract({ numbers: { a: 1, b: 2 } }), 'no value for you') // -1
      getValueOrDefault(() => substract({ a: 1, b: 2 }), 'no value for you') // no value for you

Destructuring assignment is a syntax that allows us to “unpack” arrays or objects into variables Array destructuring 
            let arr = ["John", "Smith"]
            let [firstName, surname] = arr // firstName = "John", surname = "Smith"
            let [firstName, surname] = "John Smith".split(' ') // firstName = "John", surname = "Smith"
            let [firstName, , title] = ["Julius", "Caesar", "Consul", "of the Roman Republic"] // title = "Consul"
            let [one, two, three] = [1, 2, 3]  // one = 1, two = 2, three = 3
            let user = {} 
            [user.name, user.surname] = ["John", "Smith"] // user.name = "John", user.surname = "Smith"
            let [one, two, three] = new Set([1, 2, 3]) // works with any iterable
            let [a, b, c] = "abc" // a = "a", b = "b", c = "c" // works with any iterable
       Looping with  entries() 
            let user = {

display: inline inline elements are elements with  display: inline , such as   <a> ,  <input> ,  <span> ,   <img>  and others text is inline element inline elements go on the same line one by one  jumps to the next line if there is no space anymore width / height fits the content & can not be set top & bottom margins can not be set left & right margins can be set padding can be set line break in html between inline elements is considered as a space display: block Block tends to expand to the whole width Block elements go one under another (if there is no "float" property)  block with  width: max-content  does not take whole width    height / width can be set block elements stick to each other w/o gaps (if there is no margin) most of elements are block els by default block element is a rectangle display: inline-block it is a block element with few exceptions elements go on the same line one by one width & height fits the content width & height can be set Usually used to show block elements in one line line break in html (between tags for ex) considered as a space display: table Can make a table from any element with following properties display: table display: table-row display: table-header-group display: table-row-group display: table-footer-group display: table-column display: table-column-group display: table-cell display: table-caption display: flex Flex container expands or shrinks items to fill available free. Flex layout is direction-agnostic Check my  playground  for flex properties display: list-item Makes like a  <li>  bullet point list element. display: run-in Element becomes the first inline element of next block element float: left float: left | right | none | inherit With  float  property element is extracted from the normal css flow It is moved to left/right until touches the parent's edge or another  floating   element Float makes element automatically  display: block If there is no space to fit the element on a line, then it goes to the next line Other non-positioned block elements w/o  float  acts like floating element does not exist Inline elements know about floating element and go around it There is no vertical margin collapsing between floating and neighboring elements Float block can be a container and include other elements Widely used in text with images Parent does not reserve space for floating element, to fix it may add element after with   clear: left | right | both display: contents Allows you to treat children of flex or grid item just like they are flex/grid items themselves. In other words you can "flatten out" nested DOM tree to use it within one flex or grid system.

"Text", "Element", "Comment" inherit from it Element Element  is a base class for DOM elements It provides element-level navigation like nextElementSibling, children and searching methods like getElementsByTagName, querySelector "HTMLElement" inherit from it HTMLElement HTMLElement  is finally the basic class for all HTML elements It is inherited by HTML elements HTMLInputElement  the class for  <input>  elements HTMLBodyElement  the class for  <body>  elements HTMLAnchorElement  the class for  <a>  elements …and so on, each tag has its own class that may provide specific properties and methods 
      input.constructor.name // "HTMLInputElement"
      input instanceof HTMLElement  // true
      input instanceof EventTarget  // true
       console.dir(inputElem) let's console some input element with  console.dir(inputElem) in DOM object tree in  __proto__  we can see hierarchy HTMLInputElement  this class provides input-specific properties HTMLElement  it provides common HTML element methods (and getters/setters) Element  provides generic element methods Node  provides common DOM node properties EventTarget  gives the support for events Object  plain object methods available, like hasOwnProperty etc... elem.nodeType 
      elem.nodeType == 1 // for element nodes
      elem.nodeType == 3 // for text nodes
      elem.nodeType == 9 // for the document object
       In modern scripts, we can use  instanceof  and other class-based tests. elem.nodeName we can read node tag name from nodeName or tagName properties nodeName is defined for any Node 
      document.body.nodeName // BODY
      input.nodeName // INPUT
       elem.tagName The  tagName  property exists only for  Element  nodes. 
      document.body.tagName // BODY
       Browser host environment - browser, web-server, or another host (even coffee machine), where JavaScript runs each host environment provides platform-specific functionality host environment provides own objects and functions additional to the language core in browser the DOM is kept in  window  object - root object for a web-browser browser (or other host environment) provides additional objects for working with everything except the document 
      // window object
      function sayHi() { alert("Hello") }
      sayHi()
      window.sayHi() // same, function is located in window object
      window.innerHeight // inner window height
       
        // BOM
        location.href // shows current URL
        location.href = "https://wikipedia.org"; // redirect the browser to another URL

Mouse events order mousedown --> mouseup --> click --> mousedown --> mouseup --> click --> dblclick e.button e.button  get the exact clicked mouse button e.button = 0  Left button (primary) e.button = 1  Middle button (auxiliary) e.button = 2  Right button (secondary) e.button = 3  X1 button (back) e.button = 4  X2 button (forward) e.which  same, but old non-standard way 
      document.addEventListener('click', (e) => console.log(e.button)) // 0
      document.addEventListener('contextmenu', (e) => console.log(e.button)) // 2
       e.modifiers e.shiftKey  Shift e.altKey  Alt (or Opt for Mac) e.ctrlKey  Ctrl e.metaKey  Cmd for Mac true  if the key was pressed during the event Detect if press  alt+shift  during a click... 
      document.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
        if (e.altKey && e.shiftKey) alert('Hooray!')
      })
       mouseover, mouseout mouseover  triggers when pointer comes over an element e.target  - element where the mouse came over e.relatedTarget  - element from which the mouse came mouseout  triggers when pointer leaves an element e.target  - element that the mouse left e.relatedTarget  - new under-the-pointer element, that mouse left for  relatedTarget  can be  null  if mouse came from out of the window or left the window If  mouseover  triggered, there must be  mouseout mousemove doesn't trigger on every pixel, that’s good for performance but some DOM-elements may be skipped it’s possible that the pointer jumps right inside the middle of the page from out of the window In that case  relatedTarget  is null, because it came from “nowhere” mouseover  event bubbles up if parent has  mouseover  handler, it may seem that the mouse pointer left #parent element, and then immediately came back over it to avoid such mess we need to examine  event.target  and  relatedTarget  and if the mouse is still inside the element, then ignore such event or better to use  mouseenter  &  mouseleave  events 
      outterDiv.onmouseover = outterDiv.onmouseout = handler
      function handler(e) {
        console.log(`${e.type}: target=${e.target.id}, relatedTarget=${e.relatedTarget.id}`)
      }
       mouseenter, mouseleave events are similar to  mouseover  &  mouseout triggers when the mouse pointer enters/leaves an element no bubbling transitions inside the element, to/from descendants, are not counted event delegation not possible 
      div.onmouseenter = div.onmouseleave = handler
      function handler(e) {
        console.log(`${e.type}: target=${e.target.id}, relatedTarget=${e.relatedTarget.id}`)
      }
       Event delegation Highlight cells on click... 
      table.onclick = function(e) {
        let td = e.target.closest('td') // we may click on some tag inside td, so we find the nearest td
        if (!td) return // check if was inside any <td>
        if (!table.contains(td)) return // check if it is out table
        highlight(td) // do action
      }
       Highlight all els in table under mouse...

       Pointer events Pointer events allow handling mouse, touch, pen events simultaneously, with a single piece of code We can replace "mouse" with "pointer" in event names and expect our code to continue working for mouse Pointer events types touchstart ,  touchend ,  touchmove pointerdown  similar to  mousedown pointerup  similar to  mouseup pointermove  similar to  mousemove pointerover  similar to  mouseover pointerout  similar to  mouseout pointerenter  similar to  mouseenter pointerleave  similar to  mouseleave pointercancel gotpointercapture  fires when an element uses el.setPointerCapture(pointerId) to enable capturing lostpointercapture  fires when the capture is released Pointer events properties Pointer events have the same properties as mouse events, plus... pointerId  the unique identifier of the pointer causing the event pointerType  pointing device type, “mouse”, “pen” or “touch”, we can use this property to react differently on various pointer types isPrimary = true  for the primary pointer (the first finger in multi-touch) width  width of the area where the pointer (e.g. a finger) touches the device. Where unsupported, e.g. for a mouse, it’s always 1 height  the height of the area where the pointer touches the device. Where unsupported, it’s always 1 pressure  the pressure of the pointer tip, in range from 0 to 1. For devices that don’t support pressure must be either 0.5 (pressed) or 0 tangentialPressure  the normalized tangential pressure tiltX ,  tiltY ,  twist  pen-specific properties that describe how the pen is positioned relative the surface. Multi-touch handling multi-touch can be done with the help of the  pointerId  and  isPrimary  properties if we use 5 fingers simultaneously, we have 5 pointerdown events with their respective coordinates and a different  pointerId when the user moves and then removes a finger, we get  pointermove  and  pointerup  events with the same  pointerId  as we had in  pointerdown isPrimary = true  events associated with the first finger and  isPrimary = false  for others pointerId  assigned for each touching finger 
      document.onpointerdown = document.onpointerup = log
      function log(e) {
        console.log( `${e.type} isPrimary=${e.isPrimary} pointerId=${e.pointerId}`)
      }
       pointercancel event fires when ongoing pointer interaction is aborted ...or pointer device hardware was physically disabled ...or device orientation changed ...or browser decided to handle the interaction on its own Prevent the default browser action to avoid  pointercancel after this browser won’t hijack the process and doesn’t emit pointercancel Set CSS to  { touch-action: none } 
      ball.ondragstart = () => false
       setPointerCapture el.setPointerCapture(pointerId)  binds events with the given pointerId to el all pointer events with the same pointerId will have elem as the target no matter where in document they really happened in other words, re-targets all subsequent events with the given pointerId to el The binding is removed when  pointerup  or  pointercancel  events occur or elem is removed from the document or  el.releasePointerCapture(pointerId)  called Pointer capturing can be used to simplify drag’n’drop kind of interactions we use  pointerdown  and  pointermove  on thumb, but there is a problem …As the pointer moves, it may leave the slider thumb: go above or below it then we need to assign  pointermove  on the whole document if we do it on document level, there might be some side effects, trigger other event handlers and here the magic comes... We can call  thumb.setPointerCapture(event.pointerId)  in  pointerdown  handler Then future pointer events will be re-targeted to thumb When  pointerup  happens (dragging complete), the binding is removed automatically, we don’t need to care about it if a user moves the pointer around the whole document, events handlers will be called on thumb 
      <div id="slider">
        <div id="thumb"></div>
      </div>
       
      let shiftX

      thumb.onpointerdown = function(e) {
        e.preventDefault() // prevent selection start (browser action)
        shiftX = e.clientX - thumb.getBoundingClientRect().left
        thumb.setPointerCapture(e.pointerId)
      }

      thumb.onpointermove = function(e) {
        if(!e.target.hasPointerCapture(e.pointerId)) return
        let newLeft = e.clientX - shiftX - slider.getBoundingClientRect().left

        // if the pointer is out of slider => adjust left to be within the bounaries
        if (newLeft < 0) newLeft = 0
        let rightEdge = slider.offsetWidth - thumb.offsetWidth
        if (newLeft > rightEdge) newLeft = rightEdge

        thumb.style.left = newLeft + 'px'
      }

      thumb.ondragstart = () => false
       keydown, keyup keyboard events should be used to handle keyboard actions (virtual keyboard also) use  input  event to track input into an  <input>  field  keyboard events are not enough coz there are also speech recognition, copy/paste with mouse etc... Event types e.key  get the character, language layout specific e.code  get the “physical key code”, for hotkey e.keypress ,  e.keyCode ,  e.charCode ,  e.which  - legacy, many browser incompatibilities e.repeat  -  true  if an event is triggered by auto-repeat 
      document.addEventListener('keydown', (e) => {
        console.log('e.key', e.key)
        console.log('e.code', e.code)
        console.log('e.repeat', e.repeat)
      })
      // hold shift+D
      // e.key D
      // e.code KeyD
      // e.repeat true
       Default actions <input>  expects a tel number, does not accept keys except  digits ,  + ,  - ,  ( ,  ) 
      <input id="inp" onkeydown="return checkPhoneKey(event.key)" placeholder="Phone, please" type="tel">
       
      function checkPhoneKey(key) {
        return (key >= '0' && key <= '9') || key == '+' || key == '(' || key == ')' || key == '-'
          key == 'ArrowLeft' || key == 'ArrowRight' || key == 'Delete' || key == 'Backspace';
      }
       Or... 
      inp.addEventListener('keydown',  e => {
        if ( 
          !( (e.key >= '0' && e.key <= '9') || e.key == '+' || e.key == '(' || e.key == ')' 
          || e.key == '-' || e.key == 'ArrowLeft' || e.key == 'ArrowRight' 
          || e.key == 'Delete' || e.key == 'Backspace' ) 
        ) e.preventDefault()
      })
       Right-click + paste still work, we can track the  input  event to prevent it. Mobile for virtual keyboards  e.keyCode = 229  and  e.key = "Unidentified" some of these keyboards might still use the right values keyboard logic might not always work on mobile devices logic for tracking mobile keyboards may be following... 
      function runOnKeys(func, ...codes) {
        let pressed = new Set()
        document.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {
          pressed.add(e.code)
          for (let code of codes) {
            if (!pressed.has(code)) return
          }
          pressed.clear()

        () => alert("Hello!"),
        "KeyQ",
        "KeyW"
      )
       scroll scroll  event works both on the window and on scrollable elements Show the current scroll 
      window.addEventListener('scroll', () => console.log(window.pageYOffset + 'px'))
       Prevent scrolling Scroll triggers after the scroll has already happened That's why  e.preventDefault()  in onscroll listener does not work Use CSS,  overflow  property focus, blur focus  event is called on focusing blur  – when an element loses the focus element receives the focus when clicked or "Tabbed" from keyboard autofocus  - HTML attribute that puts the focus by default when a page load doesn’t bubble up & triggers on input only but they propagate on capturing phase, trange historical thing 
      form.addEventListener("focus", () => alert('focused')) // do not work
      form.addEventListener("blur", () => alert('blured')) // do not work

      form.addEventListener("focus", () => alert('focused'), true) // works
      form.addEventListener("blur", () => alert('blured'), true) // works

      form.addEventListener("focusin", () => alert('focused')) // works
      form.addEventListener("focusout", () => alert('blured')) // works
       Mail validation blur  handler checks if the field has an email entered, and if not – shows an error focus  handler hides the error message (on  blur  it will be checked again) can’t “prevent losing focu by  e.preventDefault()  in on  blur because on  blur  works after the element lost the focus 
      Your email please: <input type="email" id="input">
      <div id="error"></div>
       
        input.onblur = function() {
          if (!input.value.includes('@')) {
            input.classList.add('invalid')
            error.innerHTML = 'Please enter a correct email.'
          }
        }
        
        input.onfocus = function() {
          if (this.classList.contains('invalid')) {
            this.classList.remove('invalid')
            error.innerHTML = ""
          }
        }
       focus(), blur() elem.focus()  set the focus on the element elem.blur()  unset the focus on the element alert()  causes focus loose when alert is dismissed, the focus comes back (focus event) If an element is removed from DOM, then it also causes the focus loss If it is reinserted later, then the focus doesn’t return Do not leave input if mail in invalid... 
        input.onblur = function() {
          if (!this.value.includes('@')) { 
            alert("mail is incorrect")
            input.focus() // ...and put the focus back
            return
          }
            
          this.classList.remove("error")
        }
       tabindex focus is supported by <button>, <input>, <select>, <a> By default, many elements do not support focusing This can be changed using HTML-attribute  tabindex The switch order is: elements with tabindex from 1 and above go first  then elements w/o  tabindex  (e.g. a regular  <input> ) Elements w/o  tabindex  are switched in the document source order tabindex="0"  - special value´, puts an element among those w/o  tabindex Usually it’s used to make an element focusable, but keep the default switching order tabindex="-1"  allows only programmatic focusing on an element Tab  ignores such elements, but method  elem.focus()  works elem.tabIndex  works too We can add  tabindex  from JavaScript by using the  elem.tabIndex  property focusin, focusout Exactly the same as focus/blur, but they bubble 
      form.addEventListener("focusin", () => alert('focused')) // works
      form.addEventListener("focusout", () => alert('blured')) // works
       change change  event triggers when the element has finished changing for text inputs that means that the event occurs when it loses focus for  <select> ,  <input type="checkbox"> ,  <input type="radio">  it triggers right after the selection changes 
      input.addEventListener('change', function () {
        console.log(this.value) // comes only on focus loose
      })
       
      <select onchange="alert(this.value)">
        <option value="">Select something</option>
        <option value="1">Option 1</option>
        <option value="2">Option 2</option>
        <option value="3">Option 3</option>
      </select>
       input input  event triggers every time after a value is modified by user triggers on any value change, pasting with a mouse or using speech recognition input  event doesn’t trigger on not value change, e.g. arrow keys ⇦ ⇨  e.preventDefault()  not working, coz event occurs after the value is modified cut, copy, paste events occur on cutting/copying/pasting a value belong to the  ClipboardEvent  class and provide access to the data that is copied/pasted it’s possible to copy/paste not just text, but everything (file) The clipboard is a “global” OS-level thing for safety reason clipboard usually accessed only on user action (e.g.  onclick ) https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Clipboard 
      e.preventDefault() // works to abort copied/paste

      input.oncut = input.oncopy = input.onpaste = function(e) {
        alert(e.type + ' - ' + e.clipboardData.getData('text/plain'))
        return false
      }
       Prevent copy, selection 
      el.addEventListener('copy', e => e.preventDefault())
      el.addEventListener('mousedown', e => e.preventDefault())
       submit submit  event triggers when the form is submitted e.preventDefault()  prevents automatic submission and redirection 
      <form onsubmit="alert('submit!'); return false">
        Submit can be done by:
        First: Enter in the input field <input type="text" value="text"><br>
        Second: Click "submit": <input type="submit" value="Submit">
      </form>
       When a form is sent using  Enter  on an input field a  click  event triggers on the  <input type="submit"> 
      <form onsubmit="return false">
        <input type="text" size="30" value="Focus here and press enter">
        <input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="alert('click')">

        document.body.append(form) // the form must be in the document to submit it
        form.submit()

        // the submit event is not generated

dom events

Create createElement 
      document.createElement('tag')
       createTextNode 
      document.createTextNode('text')
       Add Append Append at the end of node 
      el.append(nodes, 'strings')
       Prepend Insert at the beginning of node 
      el.prepend(nodes, 'strings')
       Before Insert before node 
      el.before(nodes, 'strings')
       After Insert after node 
      el.after(nodes, 'strings') 
       Comment Arguments are DOM nodes to insert, or text strings Text strings become text nodes automatically May add multiple args 
      let div = document.createElement("div")
      let p = document.createElement("p")
      div.append(p)
       
      let div = document.createElement("div")
      div.append("Some text")
       
      let div = document.createElement("div")
      let p = document.createElement("p")
      div.append("Some text", p)
       replaceWith Replaces node 
      node.replaceWith(nodes, 'strings')
       insertAdjacentHTML Method inserts HTML. insertion methods remove the node from the old place. 
      el.insertAdjacentHTML(where, "HTML string")
       beforebegin Insert html immediately before elem 
      el.insertAdjacentHTML("beforebegin", "HTML string")
       afterbegin Insert html into elem, at the beginning 
      el.insertAdjacentHTML("afterbegin", "HTML string")
       beforeend insert html into elem, at the end 
      el.insertAdjacentHTML("beforeend", "HTML string") 
       afterend Insert html immediately after elem 
      el.insertAdjacentHTML("afterend", "HTML string") 
       Example 
      document.body.insertAdjacentHTML("afterbegin", `<div class="alert">
        <strong>Hi there!</strong> You've read an important message.
      </div>`)
       insertAdjacentText String of text is inserted “as text”. Rarely used methods, usually append/prepend/before/after are used 
      el.insertAdjacentText("beforebegin", "text")
      el.insertAdjacentText("afterbegin", "text")
      el.insertAdjacentText("beforeend", "text")
      el.insertAdjacentText("afterend", "text")
       insertAdjacentElement Element is inserted. Rarely used methods, usually append/prepend/before/after are used 
      el.insertAdjacentElement("beforebegin", element)
      el.insertAdjacentElement("afterbegin", element)
      el.insertAdjacentElement("beforeend", element)
      el.insertAdjacentElement("afterend", element)
       Remove 
      node.remove()
       Example 
      let div = document.createElement('div')
      document.body.append(div)
      setTimeout(() => div.remove(), 1000)
       cloneNode 
      el.cloneNode()
       Creates a “deep” clone of the element – with all attributes and sub elements 
      el.cloneNode(true)
       Clone is made w/o child elements 
      el.cloneNode(false)
       Example 
      <div class="alert" id="div">
        <strong>Hi there!</strong> You've read an important message.
      </div>
       
      let div2 = div.cloneNode(true) // clone the message
      div2.querySelector('strong').innerHTML = 'Bye there!' // change the clone
      div.after(div2) // show the clone after the existing div
       Old-school methods appendChild() ,  insertBefore() ,  replaceChild() ,  removeChild() All these methods return the inserted/removed node usually the returned value is not used, we just run the method 
      parentElem.appendChild(node) // Appends node as the last child of parentElem
      parentElem.insertBefore(node, nextSibling) // Inserts node before nextSibling into parentElem.
      parentElem.replaceChild(node, oldChild) // Replaces oldChild with node among children of parentElem.
      parentElem.removeChild(node) // Removes node from parentElem (assuming node is its child).
       document.write() ancient method of adding something to a web-page string can be dynamically generated only works while the page is loading if we call it afterwards, the existing document content is erased it works fast, because there’s no DOM modification involved if we need to add a lot of text into HTML dynamically, and we’re at page loading phase, and the speed matters, it may help 
      document.write('<b>Hello from JS</b>')
       DocumentFragment do not use, use array instead special DOM node that serves as a wrapper to pass around lists of nodes we can append nodes to it when we insert it somewhere, then its content is inserted 
      <ul id="ul"></ul>
       
      function getListContent() {
        let fragment = new DocumentFragment()
      
        for(let i=1; i<=3; i++) {
          let li = document.createElement('li')
          li.append(i)
          fragment.append(li)
        }
        return fragment
      }
      
      ul.append(getListContent())
       Output 
      <ul>
        <li>1</li>
        <li>2</li>
        <li>3</li>
      </ul>
       Proper array version 
      function getListContent() {
        let result = []
        for(let i=1; i<=3; i++) {
          let li = document.createElement('li')
          li.append(i)
          result.push(li)
        }
        return result
      }
      ul.append(...getListContent())

Glossary DOM  - document object model which represents a web page.  DOM tree consists of different Nodes:  document ,  documentFragment ,  documentType ,  element ,  text ,  comment . Element  -  Node  object, which represents html tag. Ancestors  - all elements up the DOM tree Descendants  - all elements down the DOM tree Children  - all elements 1 level down the DOM tree Siblings  - elements on the same DOM level (children of the same parent) Selection DOM elements can be selected by CSS selectors via following methods el.querySelectorAll('selector')   static  Collection of els or or an empty NodeList if no matches. el.querySelector('selector')   static  element,  null  if no matches, same as  el.querySelectorAll('selector')[0] document.getElementById('id')  element with  id  or  null  if no matches. el.getElementsByClassName('className')   live  Collection of elements with the given class name. el.getElementsByTagName('tagName')   live  Collection of elements with the given tag name or  null  if no matches. Tag can be  *  for any tags. document.getElementsByName('nameVal')   live  Collection of elements with a given name attribute. Main DOM objects & shortcuts window  global parent object, which contains DOM document , same as  window.document , top node, entry point into DOM document.documentElement , same as  document.querySelector('HTML') ,  <html>  element document.head , same as  document.querySelector('head') ,  <head>  element document.body , same as  document.querySelector('body') ,  <body>  element CSS selectors  Testing el.matches('selectorStr')   true  if the  el  matches  selectorStr node.contains(otherNode)   true  if the  node  contains  otherNode  or if they are same nodes node.hasChildNodes()   true  if node has child nodes node.isEqualNode(otherNode)   true  if the two nodes are alike node.isSameNode(otherNode)   true  if the two nodes are same object Navigation HTML elements el.parentElement  parent element one level up the DOM el.children  elements one level down the DOM el.childElementCount  number of children el.firstElementChild  first child el.lastElementChild  last child el.nextElementSibling  next element on the same DOM level el.previousElementSibling  previous element on the same DOM level el.closest('selector')  first matching element starting from itself and upwards,  null  if no matches el.shadowRoot  shadow root el that is hosted by the element, or null Nodes node.parentNode node.parentElement node.childNodes   live  NodeList with all children (one level down) node.firstChild = Node.childNodes[0] node.lastChild = Node.childNodes[Node.childNodes.length - 1] node.nextSibling node.previousSibling node.getRootNode()  - return HTMLDocument or ShadowRoot Table let tbl = document.querySelector('table') tbl.caption   <caption> tbl.tHead   <thead> tbl.tBodies  tBodies collection tbl.tBodies[0]   <tbody> tbl.tFoot   <tfoot> tbl.rows  collection of table rows (tr) tbl.tHead.rows  tr collection  tbl.tBodies[0].rows  tr collection tbl.tFoot.rows  tr collection tbl.rows[1].sectionRowIndex  0, index of the given  <tr>  inside  <thead> ,  <tbody> ,  <tfoot> tbl.rows[1].rowIndex  1, index of the given  <tr>  inside table tbl.tBodies[0].rows[1].cells  collection of cells  <td>  in 2nd row  tbl.tHead.rows[0].cells[3].cellIndex  3, cell index inside  <tr> Form Forms are members of the special collection  document.forms document.forms  collection of forms document.forms[0]  first form in the document document.forms.login  form with attribute  name="login" document.forms["login"]  same document.forms["login"].elements  collection of elements in the form document.forms["login"].elements.password  collection of elements with attribute  name="password" document.forms["login"].elements["password"]  same document.forms["login"].password  same, short notation Forms are members of the special collection  document.forms input.value = "new value"  xxx jQuery Select jQuery('selector') , same as  $('selector') , searches in DOM and returns a new jQuery obj with found elements   $('span', this) , same as  $(this).find('span') $(el)  can feed html element into jQuery to make it a jQ object $("div").get()  - returns array instead of jQ object $("div").get(0) , same as  $("div")[0]  - returns first DOM element All CSS selectors works for jQ Additional selectors $("[attr!='val']")  elements without attr value  // $("textarea[placeholder!='Word']") $(":hidden")  hidden elements  $(":visible")  not hidden elements, elements with  visibility: hidden;  &  opacity: 0  are also  visible $(":eq(index)")  element at index within the matched set.

Materials https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/ Components Attribute  - data element Items  - collection of attributes Table  - collection of items  Each item can have its own distinct attributes Usually attributes have only one value Nested attribute (address) are allowed, up to 32 levels deep Primary key Primary key is mandatory identifier for an item in the table Primary key  can be a simple one attribute -  partition key Composed primary key  can be a  partition key  +  sort key . Partition keys can be the same in such case. Primary key attribute can be only string, number or binary Secondary indexes Secondary indexes can be created to query table in addition to queries against the primary key Not necessary if values of primary keys are enough for querying There are  global  &  local  secondary indexes, but put Local ones apart, did not get why to use them 20 global secondary indexes are allowed We do not necessarily need indexes, because we can use Scan + FilterExpression, but it is heavy, long and pricy. Better to add an index We can apply global secondary index after table creation Internally every secondary index creates a cloned table keeping it in sync to the original, which leads to double cost on every read & write Local DynamoDB setup Install Java  runtime Download  local  DynamoDb Put into some folder and open it with terminal Run  java -Djava.library.path=./DynamoDBLocal_lib -jar DynamoDBLocal.jar -sharedDb -port 8000 Output

       finally  always executes even if we use  return  in  try  block can use it if don’t want to handle errors, but want to finalize process 
      function func() {
        try {
          console.log('try')
          return

       Global  error  event listener In case of fatal error outside  try...catch ErrorEvent contains all the information about the event and the error. 
      window.addEventListener('error', function(event) { 
        alert(event.message) // human-readable error message describing the problem.
        console.log(event.filename) // name of the script file in which the error occurred.
        console.log(event.lineno ) //  line number of the script file on which the error occurred.
        console.log(event.colno) // column number of the script file on which the error occurred.
        console.log(event.error) // Is a JavaScript Object that is concerned by the event.
      })
       var  inside  catch try...catch  creates block scopes and we should declare  const  or   let  variables outside 
          const getRandomNumber = () => Math.floor(Math.random() * 100 + 1)
            
          function getNumber() {

            }

            return number // 0
          }
         may use  var  declaration as it is hoisted and goes to function scope 
          const getRandomNumber = () => Math.floor(Math.random() * 100 + 1)

          function getNumber() {
            try {

eval()  function allows to execute a string of code Minifiers badly work with  eval() , do not use it 
        let code = 'alert("Hello")'
        eval(code) // Hello

        let value = eval('1+1')
        value // 2
       Eval’ed code is executed in the current lexical environment In strict mode,  eval()  has its own lexical environment 
        let a = 1
        function f() {
          let a = 2
          eval('alert(a)') 
        }
        f() // 2
       
        'use strict'
        eval("let x = 5; function f() {}")
        alert(typeof x) // undefined 
       If eval’ed code doesn’t use outer variables, call   eval()  as   window.eval() 
        let x = 1
        {
          let x = 5
          window.eval('alert(x)') // 1 (global variable)
        }
       If eval’ed code needs local variables, change eval()  to   new Function()  and pass them as arguments 
        let f = new Function('a', 'alert(a)')
        f(5) // 5

Event loop best explanation ever -   https://youtu.be/eiC58R16hb8?si=uv2bOdlrUJJEgP1J&t=652 JS execution flow is based on an endless  event loop JS executes tasks one by one starting from the oldest When there are no tasks anymore JS waits for new ones Task may come while the engine is busy, then it's queued Queue of tasks is called  macrotask queue Rendering happens only after the task is completed, before another macrotask If a task takes long, the browser is blocked & raises the "page unresponsive” alert Macrotasks Scripts we call Event handlers Scripts are added to the end of the  macrotask queue  by  setTimeout(func)  with no delay Microtasks After every macrotask, tasks from microtask queue are executed It's done before running other macrotasks or rendering or event handling It guarantees that the environment is the same between microtasks (no mouse coordinate changes, no new network data, etc)  Microtask is a script called by promise handlers  .then/catch/finally()  or  queueMicrotask(func)  or observers Microtasks are used behind of  await  as well queueMicrotask() So if we'd like to execute a function asynchronously (after the current code), but before changes are rendered or new events handled, we can schedule it with  queueMicrotask(() => { func() }) Event loop sequence M a crotask (script, event handler)   M i crotask (promise handlers &  queueMicrotask(func) )   Render   M a crotask set by  setTimeout(func)    ... again & again Web workers For calculations that shouldn't block the event loop, we can use Web Workers. That's a way to run code in another parallel thread Web Workers can exchange messages with the main process They have their own variables, and their own event loop. Web Workers do not have access to DOM They are useful, mainly, for calculations They can use multiple CPU cores simultaneously in NodeJS process.nextTick(func)  executes function on the current iteration of the event loop, after the current operation ends, before  setTimeout()  and  setImmediate() setImmediate(func)  is the same as  setTimeout(func, 0)  and executes in the next iteration of the event loop, as soon as possible Examples Sequence    
      function Cmpt0() {
        function func() {
          alert(1) // synchronous call
          setTimeout(() => alert(2)) // macrotask sent to the end of the queue
          Promise.resolve().then(res => alert(3)) // microtask
          alert(4) // regular synchronous call
          // 1 --> 4 --> 3 --> 2
        }
        return <button onClick={func}>Click</button>
      }
      const toRender0 = <Cmpt0 />
       Count to billion without   setTimeout() Run whole code at one time Changes to DOM are painted after running task is completed We'll see only the last value instead of progress Code freezes the browser    
      function Cmpt2() {
        const ref = React.useRef()
      
        function countToBln() {
          let count = 0, start = Date.now()
          for (let j = 0; j < 1e9; j++) count++
          ref.current.innerHTML = count
          alert(`Done in ${Date.now() - start} ms`)
        }
      
        return (

      }
      const toRender2 = <Cmpt2 />
       Count to billion with setTimeout() Split code into parts and queue them: 1 mln + 1 mln + ... up to 1 bln Splitting with  setTimeout()  we make multiple macrotasks and changes are painted in-between If an onclick event appears while the engine is busy it is queued mixed together with main counting tasks Page is responsive There's in-browser minimal delay of 4ms for many nested setTimeout calls and the earlier we schedule task via setTimeout, the faster it runs    
      function Cmpt3() {
        const ref = React.useRef()

DOM events Most useful DOM events click  click or tap on an element dblclick  two clicks on the same element within a short time, rarely used contextmenu  mouse right-clicks on an element or special contextmenu keyboard key pressed mouseover ,  mouseout  mouse cursor comes over / leaves an element mousedown ,  mouseup  mouse button is pressed / released over an element mousemove  mouse is moved keydown ,  keyup  keyboard key is pressed and released submit  visitor submits a form focus  visitor focuses on an element, e.g. input, textarea DOMContentLoaded  the HTML is loaded and processed, DOM is fully built transitionend  CSS-animation finishes Take a closer look at  DOM events . Event handler in HTML-attribute Event handler  - a function that reacts on events 
      <input value="Click me" onclick="alert('Click!')" type="button"></input>
      <input type="button" oNcLiCk="countRabbits()" value="Count rabbits!"></input>
       inside onclick we use single quotes, because the attribute itself is in double quotes HTML attribute names are not case-sensitive, so ONCLICK works as well as onClick and onCLICK… But usually attributes are lowercased 
      // !!! NOT working, coz value should be a string
      document.body.setAttribute('onclick', function() { alert(1) })
       element.on 
      <input id="elem" type="button" value="Click me">
       
      elem.onclick = function() { alert('Thank you') }
       or... 
      const sayThanks = () => alert('Thanks!')
      elem.onclick = sayThanks // no parentheses
       Some handlers work only with  addEventListener , for ex  DOMContentLoaded   event elem.onclick = null  remove a handler As there’s only one onclick property, we can’t assign more than one event handler Adding a new handler with JavaScript overwrites the existing handler DOM-property case matters addEventListener 
      element.addEventListener(event, handler, [options])
       event  event name, e.g. "click" handler  handler function options  additional optional object with properties 
      element.addEventListener('click', func,  {
          capture: false,
          once: false
          passive: false
        })
       capture: true  catch an event on the capturing phase once: true  fires an event only ones passive: true  tells the browser that the handler is not going to cancel scrolling, not going to call  preventDefault() Then browser scrolls immediately providing a maximally fluent experience For some browsers (Firefox, Chrome), passive is true by default for touchstart and touchmove events removeEventListener To remove a handler we should pass exactly the same function as was assigned  if we don’t store the function in a variable, then we can’t remove it To remove the handler, removeEventListener needs to have identical parameters 
      function handler() { alert( 'Thanks!' ) }
      input.addEventListener("click", handler)
      input.removeEventListener("click", handler)
       
      el.addEventListener("event", fn, true)
      el.removeEventListener("event", fn, true)
       Will not work, because technically they are different function objects 
      el.addEventListener( "click" , () => alert('Thanks!'))
      el.removeEventListener( "click", () => alert('Thanks!'))
       Multiple handlers Multiple event handlers can be achieved by multiple addEventListeners. 
      function handler1() { alert('Thanks!') }
      function handler2() { alert('Thanks again!') }
      elem.onclick = () => alert("Hello")
      elem.addEventListener("click", handler1) // Thanks!
      elem.addEventListener("click", handler2) // Thanks again!
       AbortController https://kettanaito.com/blog/dont-sleep-on-abort-controller May provide an abort signal to an event listener and call  controller.abort()   to remove it No need to keep a reference to a handler function for   element.removeEventListener("click", handlerFunc) 
          const controller = new AbortController()
          window.addEventListener('resize', () => {}, { signal: controller.signal })
          controller.abort()
         Also cancels multiple listeners 
          useEffect(() => {
            const controller = new AbortController()

            window.addEventListener('resize', handleResize, {
              signal: controller.signal,
            })

            window.addEventListener('hashchange', handleHashChange, {
              signal: controller.signal,
            })

            window.addEventListener('storage', handleStorageChange, {
              signal: controller.signal,
            })

            return () => {
              controller.abort()
            }
          }, [])
         this The value of  this  inside a handler is the element, which has the handler on it. 
      <button onclick="alert(this.innerHTML)">Click me</button> // Click me
       Event object when an event happens, event object is created and passes it as an argument to the handler event.type  event type, for ex.  click event.currentTarget  el where the handler is, same as  this  unless arrow func event.target  el that initiated the event event.clientX  window-relative coordinates of the cursor, for pointer events event.eventPhase  current phase (capturing=1, target=2, bubbling=3) There are more event properties, depending on the event type 
      elem.onclick = function(event) {
        event.type // Event type, here it’s "click".
        event.currentTarget // el where the handler is // same as 'this' unless arrow func
        event.target, // el that initiated the event
        event.clientX // window-relative coordinates of the cursor, for pointer events
        event.clientY
        event.eventPhase // current phase (capturing=1, target=2, bubbling=3)
      }
       The event object is also available in HTML handlers 
      <input type="button" onclick="alert(event.type)" value="Event type">
       object with handleEvent can assign not just a function, but an object as an event handler  when an event occurs, its  handleEvent  method is called 
      const obj = {
        handleEvent(event) {
          alert(event.type + " at " + event.currentTarget)
        }
      }
      document.addEventListener('click', obj)

      // we can use class

      class Menu {
        handleEvent(event) {
          switch(event.type) {
            case 'mousedown':
              elem.innerHTML = "Mouse button pressed"
              break
            case 'mouseup':
              elem.innerHTML += "...and released."
              break
          }
        }
      }

      let menu = new Menu()
      elem.addEventListener('mousedown', menu)
      elem.addEventListener('mouseup', menu)

      // or even like that

      class Menu {
        handleEvent(event) {
          // mousedown -> onMousedown
          let method = 'on' + event.type[0].toUpperCase() + event.type.slice(1);
          this[method](event);
        }
        onMousedown() { elem.innerHTML = "Mouse button pressed" }
        onMouseup() { elem.innerHTML += "...and released." }
      }

      let menu = new Menu()
      elem.addEventListener('mousedown', menu)
      elem.addEventListener('mouseup', menu)
       Bubbling When an event happens on an element, it first runs the handlers on it, then on its parent, then all the way up on other ancestors span --> div --> body --> html --> document --> window some events reach 'window', not all Almost all events bubble focus  event does not bubble 
      <form onclick="alert('form')">FORM
        <div onclick="alert('div')">DIV
          <p onclick="alert('p')">P</p>
        </div>
      </form>
       Click on  <p>  triggers 3 alerts due to bubbling bubbling happens upwards till the document object if we have a single handler form.onclick, then it can “catch” all clicks inside the form e.target element that initiated the event The most deeply nested element that caused the event is called a target element handler on a parent el can get info where it actually happened e.currentTarget element from where cursor exited or where it is entered depends on the event for  mouseenter ,  mouseover ,  dragenter  - element exited from for  mouseleave ,  mouseout ,  dragleave  - element entered into e.relatedTarget el where the handler is same as  this e.stopPropagation() stop bubbling Don’t stop it w/o a real need we forever deny access to information about events for any outer code document.addEventListener('click', fn)  will not work on document level for stopped bubble events, it might be useful 
      <body onclick="alert(`the bubbling doesn't reach here`)">
        <button onclick="event.stopPropagation()">Click me</button>
      </body>
       e.stopImmediatePropagation() stop the bubbling and prevent handlers on the current element After it no other handlers execute If an el has multiple event handlers on a single event, then even if one of them stops the bubbling, the other ones still execute but on the current element all other handlers will run Capturing Event propagation has 3 phases Capturing  - event goes down to the element Target  – event reached the target element Bubbling  – event bubbles up from the element Capturing phase is invisible to us normally rarely used in real code Capturing path example   Window -> Document -> <html> -> <body> -> <table> -> <tbody> -> <tr> -> <td> Capturing path example   Window -> Document -> <html> -> <body> -> <table> -> <tbody> -> <tr> -> <td> 
      el.addEventListener('click', fn, { capture: true })
       Or.. 
      el.addEventListener('click', fn, true)
       if  false  (default), then the handler is set on the bubbling phase 2nd phase (“target phase”: the event reached the element) is not handled separately handlers on both capturing and bubbling phases trigger at target phase Event delegation event delegation - a single handler on their common ancestor in the handler we get  event.target  to see where the event actually happened and handle it event must bubble 
      document.querySelector('#main').addEventListener('click', (e) => {
        if (!e.target.closest('#main selector')) return
        func()
      })
       Highlight cells on click... 
      table.onclick = function(e) {
        let td = e.target.closest('td') // we may click on some tag inside td, so we find the nearest td
        if (!td) return // check if was inside any <td>
        if (!table.contains(td)) return // check if it is out table
        highlight(td) // do action
      }
       Delegation via custom attributes... 
      <div id="menu">
        <button data-action="save">Save</button>
        <button data-action="load">Load</button>
        <button data-action="search">Search</button>
      </div>
       
      class Menu {
        constructor(elem) {
          this._elem = elem
          elem.onclick = this.onClick.bind(this)
        }

        save() { alert('saving') }
        load() { alert('loading') }
        search() { alert('searching') }

        onClick(event) {
          let action = event.target.dataset.action
          if (action) this[action]()
        }
      }

      new Menu(menu)
       Another example... increase value on click 
      Counter: <input type="button" value="1" data-counter>
      One more counter: <input type="button" value="2" data-counter>
       
      document.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
        if (e.target.dataset.counter != undefined) e.target.value++
      })
       e.preventDefault() stops default browser actions some events flow one into another, if we prevent the first event, there will be no second mousedown on an <input> field leads to focusing in it, and the focus event If we prevent the mousedown event, there’s no focus. The focusing is still possible with Tab key, But not with the mouse click any more e.defaultPrevented true  if the default action was prevented sometimes better to use than stopping bubbling by event.stopPropagation() we can use  event.defaultPrevented  instead, to signal other event handlers that the event was handled solution would be to check in the document handler if the default action was prevented 
      innerDiv.oncontextmenu = function(e) {
        e.preventDefault()
        alert("innerDiv context menu")
      }

      div.oncontextmenu = function(e) {
        if (e.defaultPrevented) return
        e.preventDefault()
        alert("div context menu")
      }

      outterDiv.oncontextmenu = function(e) {
        if (e.defaultPrevented) return
        e.preventDefault()
        alert("outterDiv context menu")
      }
       return false stops default browser actions prevents the event from propagating (or “bubbling up”) the DOM. Stops callback execution and returns immediately when called 
      <ul id="menu" class="menu">
        <li><a href="/html">HTML</a></li>
        <li><a href="/javascript">JavaScript</a></li>
        <li><a href="/css">CSS</a></li>
      </ul>
       
      menu.onclick = function(event) {
        if (event.target.nodeName != 'A') return
        let href = event.target.getAttribute('href')
        alert( href ) // ...can be loading from the server, UI generation etc
        return false // prevent browser action (don't go to the URL)
      }
       Custom events 
      const event = new Event(type, [options]);
       create Event objects bubbles: true  event bubbles,  false  by default cancelable: true  “default action” may be prevented,  false  by default elem.dispatchEvent(event)  trigger event on an element handlers will react on it as if it were a regular browser event return  false  if event is cancelable and any handlers which received event called preventDefault() 
      const event = new Event("my-event")
      const event = new Event("click", { bubbles: true, cancelable: true })
      elem.dispatchEvent(event)
       programmatic event trigger 
      let event = new Event("click")
      document.querySelector('button').dispatchEvent(event)
       dispatchEvent  is processed immediately, synchronous 
      document.addEventListener('hi', () => alert('hi'))
      let textarea = document.querySelector('textarea')
      textarea.addEventListener('click', function () {
        alert(1)
        textarea.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent("hi", { bubbles: true }))
        alert(2)
      })
      // 1 --> hi --> 2
       isTrusted 
      event.isTrusted
       true  for events that come from real user false  for script-generated events Built-in event classes 
      new MouseEvent("click")

      const event = new MouseEvent("click", {
        bubbles: true,
        cancelable: true,
        clientX: 100,
        clientY: 100
      })

      event.clientX // 100
       use it instead of  new Event   The right constructor allows to specify standard properties for that type of event generic Event constructor does not allow that we can work around that by assigning directly  event.clientX=100 List of some classes for UI Events... new UIEvent() new FocusEvent() new MouseEvent() new WheelEvent() new KeyboardEvent() others… Custom event 
      const helloEvent = new Event("hello", { bubbles: true })
       Better way... 
      const helloEvent = new CustomEvent("hello", {
        bubbles: true,
        detail: { name: "John" }
      })
      document.querySelector('button').dispatchEvent(helloEvent) // Hello from BUTTON

      document.addEventListener("hello", function(e) {
        alert("Hello from " + e.detail.name + ' ' + e.target.tagName)
      })
       We should use  addEventListener  for our custom events new CustomEvent  allows to add  detail  property preventDefault for custom events new custom events have no default browser action but a code that dispatches such event may have own plans what to do after triggering the event return  false  if event is cancelable and any handlers which received event called preventDefault() 
      const textarea = document.querySelector('textarea')
      textarea.addEventListener('hide', isPrevented)
      textarea.addEventListener('click', hide)

      function isPrevented(e) {
        if (confirm("Call preventDefault?")) e.preventDefault()
      }

      function hide() {
        const event = new CustomEvent("hide", { cancelable: true })
        if (!textarea.dispatchEvent(event)) {
          alert('The action was prevented by a handler')
          return
        }
        textarea.hidden = true
      }

      app.get('/', (req, res) => res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, 'public', 'index.html'))) 
       To start a server run  node index.js Hot restart Every update we do to our project files requires manual server restart with  Ctrl + C  &  node index.js To avoid it we may install  nodemon  tool and launch our server via it In terminal  npm i -D nodemon  to install the package as a development dependency Add into  package.json  following scripts 
        "scripts": {
          "start": "node index",
          "dev": "nodemon index"
        },
         Launch server via  npm run dev Now the server will be restarted automatically on every file update API documentation https://expressjs.com/en/4x/api.html Middleware Express is a routing and middleware web framework Express app is a series of middleware function calls Middleware functions can execute any code Can change the request or response objects End the request-response cycle Call the next middleware function in the stack app.use() Mounts the specified middleware function(s) at the specified path Middleware function is executed when the base of the requested path matches path. Middleware function parameters MW function has access to request & response objects and has the  next  function, which calls the next middleware function 
      app.use('/user/:id', (req, res, next) => {
        console.log('Request Type:', req.method)
        next()
      })
       Application level middleware 
      const timeLogs = (req, res, next) => {
        console.log(`URL hit: ${req.protocol}://${req.get('host')}${req.originalUrl} on ${new Date().toString()}`)
        next()
      }
      app.use(timeLogs)
       Every time the app receives a request, it prints the log message to the terminal Middleware in a separate file Add custom property to the request object 
      // /middleware/hitTime
      const hitTime = (req, res, next) => {
        req.hitTime = new Date()
        console.log(`added time to request object`)

        const addHitTimeToReqObj = require('./middleware/hitTime')
        app.use('/checkAddedHitTimeToRequest', addHitTimeToReqObj)
       Middleware function will be triggered when a user hit the url  http://localhost:5000/checkAddedHitTimeToRequest We can show this newly added object on the screen adding HTTP GET request route. 
        app.get(
          '/checkAddedHitTimeToRequest', 
          (req, res) => res.send(req.hitTime.toDateString() + req.hitTime.toLocaleTimeString())
        )
        Middleware with parameters We can not pass parameters into a middleware function directly, because in  app.use()  we have to pass only a reference to a middleware function That's why we need to create a helper function, which can accept arguments, and return a middleware function with passed parameters 
      const mwWithOpt = (flag = true) => {
        return function (req, res, next) {
          if (flag) console.log('triggered') 
          next()
        }
      }
      app.use(mwWithOpt(false))
       Will not see 'hi' in console, because we passed  false  param to a middleware function None of further middleware functions are triggered if  false  is passed, because  next()  is never called next() vs next('route') next()

      app.post('/post', (req, res) => res.send(hi'))
       We can make a post request from node file. 
      // /axios.js
      const axios = require('axios');

      axios.post('http://localhost:3000/post')
      .then(function (response) {
        console.log(response.data);
      })
      .catch(function (error) {
        console.log(error);
      });
       When we execute  node axios.js  we get  hi  in console Also can send the request from the browser's console and get the same result 
      fetch('/post', { method: 'POST' })
        .then(response => response.text())
        .then(msg => console.log(msg))
       There might be a security restriction and we should provide some  content-security-policy parameters  into request headers by middleware function in our http server file. 
      app.use(function(req, res, next) {
        res.header("Content-Security-Policy", "default-src 'self'")
        next()
      })
       app.all() 
      app.all('/all', (req, res, next) => {
        res.send('<h1>all</h1>')
        console.log('middleware1 for all http requests')
        next() // pass control to the next handler
      })
      app.all('/all', (req, res, next) => console.log('middleware2 for all http requests'))
      app.all('/all', (req, res, next) => console.log('middleware3 for all http requests')) 
       Note, we can have multiple middleware functions for the same path.  Last middleware will not be triggered, because  next()  function was not called at the 2nd function Multiple functions in one method Comma separated 
      app.get(
        '/hi', 
        function (req, res, next) {
          console.log('Hello')
          next()
        }, 
        function (req, res) {
          console.log('Hello again')
          res.send('Hello!')
        }
      )
       In array 
      const a = (req, res, next) => { console.log('a'); next(); }
      const b = (req, res, next) => { console.log('b'); next(); }
      const c = (req, res)       => { console.log('c'); res.send('Hello from c!'); }

      app.get('/path1', [a, b, c])
      app.get('/path2', a, [b, c])
       Path accepts RegExp 
      // http://localhost:5000/asdfhljljalasd73
      app.get(
        /.*73$/, 
        (req, res) => res.send('<h1>any url ending with "73" matching regexp /.*73$/</h1>')
      )

      // http://localhost:5000/about?fav_language=HTML&vehicle1=Bike&vehicle2=Car
      app.get(
        //about.*/, 
        (req, res, next) => {
          console.log(req.query) // { fav_language: 'HTML', vehicle1: 'Bike', vehicle2: 'Car' }
          next()
        }
      )
       Dynamic route &  req.params 
      // http://localhost:5000/users/34/books/8989
      app.get(
        '/users/:userId/books/:bookId', 
        (req, res) => res.send(req.params) // { "userId": "34", "bookId": "8989" }
      ) 

      // hyphen (-) and the dot (.) are interpreted literally
      // http://localhost:5000/flights/LAX-SFO
      app.get(
        '/flights/:from-:to', 
        (req, res) => res.send(req.params) // { "from": "LAX", "to": "SFO" }
      ) 

      // regexp can be used in parentheses ()
      // http://localhost:5000/user/42
      app.get(
        '/user/:userId(\d+)', 
        (req, res) => res.send(req.params) // {"userId": "42"}
      ) 
       Chainable routing 
      app.route('/book')
        .get((req, res, next) => res.send('Get a random book'))
        .post((req, res) => res.send('Add a book'))
        .put((req, res) => res.send('Update the book'))
       Router We can extract routes and middlewares to a separate files with router objects. 
      // /animals/routerFile.js
      // creates a router as a module, loads a middleware function in it,
      // defines routes, and mounts the router module on a path in the main app

      var express = require('express')
      var animalRouter = express.Router()

      // middleware that is specific to this router
      animalRouter.use(function timeLog (req, res, next) {
        console.log('Time: ', Date.now())
        next()
      })

      // define the cats page route
      animalRouter.get('/', (req, res) => res.send('main page for animals'))

      // define the dogs page route
      animalRouter.get('/dogs', (req, res) => res.send('page for dogs'))

      module.exports = animalRouter
       
        // index.js
        // load the router module in the app
        const routerAnimals = require('./animals/routerFile.js')
        // http://localhost:5000/animals
        // http://localhost:5000/animals/dogs
        app.use('/animals', routerAnimals)
       Res methods res.json() 
      app.get('/json', (req, res) => res.json({id: 1, name: 'John'}))
       res.send() Same as  res.json() 
      app.get('/send', (req, res) => res.send({id: 1, name: 'John'}))
       File download starts. 
      app.get('/send-buffer', (req, res) => res.send(Buffer.from('whoop'))) 
       
      app.get('/send', (req, res) => res.send('<p style="color:red">some html</p>'))
       Note, it just returns partially rendered page, without styling. To enable styles need to adjust  content-security-policy . 
      app.use(function(req, res, next) {
        res.header("Content-Security-Policy", "default-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';")
        next()
      })
        res.status() 
      app.get('/send-error-status-ver1', (req, res) => res.status(404).send('404: Sorry, we cannot find that!'))
      app.get('/send-error-status-ver2', (req, res) => res.sendStatus(404))
       res.redirect() 
      app.get('/redirect', (req, res) => res.redirect(301, 'https://google.com'))
       res.sendFile() Put file  /911.pdf  in the root folder File will be opened in the browser Same way can serve html files into the browser 
      const path = require('path')
      app.get('/sendFile/:file', (req, res) => {
        console.log(req.params)
        res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, req.params.file))
      })
       res.download() File will be downloaded. 
        app.get('/download', (req, res) => res.download('911.pdf')) 
       res.render() Renders a view from the template engine app Use  Pug  rendering app for example Install  npm install pug Create  /views/index.pug  file as in  example 
      // viewsindex.pug
      html
        head
          title= title
        body
          h1(style={'color': 'red'})= message
       
      app.set('view engine', 'pug')
      app.get('/pug', (req, res) => {
        res.render('index', { title: 'Hey', message: 'Hello there!' })
      })
       res.end() 
      app.get('/end', (req, res) => res.status(404).end("<h1 style='color:red;'> Error! </h1>"))
       res.set() Creates or replaces header 

      app.use((req, res, next) => {
        res.set('xxx', '1')
        res.set('xxx', '2')
        res.set('xxx', '3')
        res.set('xxx', '4').send('check the response header')
        // only xxx: 4 will be in header

        res.set('Content-Type', 'text/plain')

        // multiple headers
        res.set({
          'Content-Type': 'text/plain',
          'Content-Length': '123',
          ETag: '12345'
        })

        next()
      }) 

       res.append() Appends value to the HTTP response header field. 
      app.get('/append', (req, res) => {
        res.append('xxx', '1')
        res.append('xxx', '2')
        res.append('xxx', '3')
        res.append('xxx', '4').send('check the response header')
        // all 4 properties will be listed in response header
        next()
      }) 
       POST request from html form and fetch https://antonarbus.com/posts/post_requests Serve React static folder from Express 
        const express = require('express')
        const path = require('path')

express

fetch() 
      const response = await fetch(url, options) // resolves with response headers
      const result = await response.json()
       does network requests from JavaScript w/o options, it is a GET request, downloading the contents of the url fetch resolves with an object of the built-in  Response  class as soon as the server responds with headers At this stage we can check HTTP status, to see whether it is successful or not, check headers, but don’t have the body yet Abnormal HTTP-statuses, such as 404 or 500 do not cause an error to get the response body, we need to use an additional method call  
      async function fetchPage() {
        const response = await fetch('/posts/fetch')
        const result = await response.text()
        console.log(result)
      }

      const FetchPage = () => <button onClick={fetchPage}>fetch this page content and put into console</button>
      
      <FetchPage />
       Without  await 
      fetch('https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits')
        .then(response => response.json())
        .then(commits => alert(commits[0].author.login))
       Response response.status  HTTP status code, e.g. 200 response.ok  boolean, true if the HTTP status code is 200-299 response.body   ReadableStream  object, it allows you to read the body chunk-by-chunk response.text()  read the response and return as text response.json()  parse the response as JSON can choose only one body-reading method response.formData()  return the response as  FormData  object response.blob()  return the response as  Blob  (binary data with type) response.arrayBuffer()  return the response as  ArrayBuffer  (low-level representation of binary data) 
      const url = 'https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits'
      const response = await fetch(url)
      if (!response.ok) throw new Error("HTTP-Error: " + response.status) // if HTTP-status is 200-299
      const json = await response.json() // read response body and parse as JSON
      console.log(json[0].author.login)
       Show image in Binary 
      const url = 'https://i.insider.com/5ec6a5772618b94ebe726e95'
      const response = await fetch(url)
      console.log(response)
      let blob = await response.blob() // download as Blob object
      let img = document.createElement('img')
      img.style = 'position:fixed; top:50px; left:50px; width:300px'
      document.body.append(img)
      img.src = URL.createObjectURL(blob) // show it
       One body-reading method 
      let text = await response.text(); // response body consumed
      let parsed = await response.json(); // fails (already consumed)
       response.headers response headers are available in a Map-like headers object in  response.headers it’s not exactly a Map, but it has similar methods 
      let response = await fetch('https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits');
      // get one header
      console.log(response.headers.get('Content-Type')) // application/json; charset=utf-8
      // iterate over all headers
      for (let [key, value] of response.headers) {
        console.log(`${key} = ${value}`)
      }
       request.headers To set a request header in fetch, we can use the headers option It has an object with outgoing headers, like this 
      let response = fetch(protectedUrl, {
        headers: {
          Authentication: 'secret'
        }
      })
       List of forbidden HTTP headers which we can not set:  Accept-Charset ,  Accept-Encoding ,  Access-Control-Request-Headers ,  Access-Control-Request-Method ,  Connection ,  Content-Length ,  Cookie ,  Cookie2 ,  Date ,  DNT ,  Expect ,  Host ,  Keep-Alive ,  Origin ,  Referer ,  TE ,  Trailer ,  Transfer-Encoding ,  Upgrade ,  Via ,  Proxy-* ,  Sec-*   POST request To make a POST request, or a request with another method, we need to use fetch options Content-Type  is usually... 'Content-Type': 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8'  for string request body, default 'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'  for json request body 'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'  for form data 
      let user = { name: 'John', surname: 'Smith' }
      
      let response = await fetch('/article/fetch/post/user', {
        method: 'POST',
        body: JSON.stringify(user),
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'
        },
      })
      let result = await response.json()
      console.log(result.message)
       Request body can be... a string (e.g. JSON-encoded), used most of the times FormData  object, to submit the data as form/multipart Blob/BufferSource  to send binary data URLSearchParams , to submit the data in x-www-form-urlencoded encoding, rarely used Send an image as blob can submit binary data with fetch using Blob or BufferSource objects there’s a <canvas> where we can draw by moving a mouse over it note, we don’t set  Content-Type  header manually, because a  Blob  object has a built-in type image/png , as generated by  toBlob For  Blob  objects that type becomes the value of  Content-Type 
      <body style="margin:0">
      <canvas id="canvasElem" width="100" height="80" style="border:1px solid"></canvas>
      <input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="submit()">
       
      canvasElem.onmousemove = function(e) {
        let ctx = canvasElem.getContext('2d')
        ctx.lineTo(e.clientX, e.clientY)
        ctx.stroke()
      }
  
      async function submit() {
        let blob = await new Promise(resolve => canvasElem.toBlob(resolve, 'image/png'))
        let response = await fetch('/article/fetch/post/image', {
          method: 'POST',
          body: blob
        })
  
        // the server responds with confirmation and the image size
        let result = await response.json()
        console.log(result.message)
      }
       FormData it is an object to represent HTML form data, which can be sent with fetch as a body from the server point of view, that looks like a usual form submission if HTML form element is provided, it automatically captures its fields 
      <form id="formElem">
        <input type="text" name="name" value="John">
        <input type="text" name="surname" value="Smith">
        <input type="submit">
      </form>
       
      const formData = new FormData([form])
      formElem.onsubmit = async (e) => {
        e.preventDefault()
        const response = await fetch('/article/formdata/post/user', {
          method: 'POST',
          body: new FormData(formElem)
        })
        const result = await response.json()
        console.log(result.message) // User saved
      }
       FormData methods formData.append(name, value)  add a form field with the given name and value formData.append(name, blob, fileName)  add a field as if it were  <input type="file"> , the third argument fileName sets file name (not form field name), as it were a name of the file in user’s filesystem formData.delete(name)  remove the field with the given name formData.get(name)  get the value of the field with the given name formData.has(name)  if there exists a field with the given name, returns  true , otherwise  false formData.set(name, value)  difference is that .set removes all fields with the given name, and then appends a new field, it makes sure there’s only one field with such name formData.set(name, blob, fileName)  same 
      for(let [name, value] of formData) {
        console.log(`${name} = ${value}`) 
        // key1 = value1
        // key2 = value2
      }
  
      formData.forEach((x, y, z) => console.log(x,y,z)) 
      // value1 key1 FormData{}
      // value2 key2 FormData{}
       File in a form The form is always sent as  'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data' this encoding allows to send files 
      <form id="formElem">
        <input type="text" name="firstName" value="John">
        Picture: <input type="file" name="picture" accept="image/*">
        <input type="submit">
      </form>
       
      formElem.onsubmit = async (e) => {
        e.preventDefault()
        const response = await fetch('/article/formdata/post/user-avatar', {
          method: 'POST',

       Blob in a form convenient to send an image as a part of the form, with additional fields, such as “name” and other metadata example submits an image from  <canvas> , along with some other fields, as a form, using FormData

        ctx.lineTo(e.clientX, e.clientY)
        ctx.stroke()
      }

       Download progress response.body  is an object of  ReadableStream  class and gives full control over the reading process it provides body chunk-by-chunk, as it comes no way to track upload progress instead of response.json() or other methods we obtain a reader  we can’t use both these methods to read the same response then we get total length, it may be absent for cross-origin requests, but usually it’s at place then we read the data and add body chunks into the array done  is  true  for the last chunk value  is  Uint8Array  of the chunk bytes after the response is consumed, we won’t be able to “re-read” it using  response.json()  or another way then concatenate chunks into single  Uint8Array then we need to create a string from  chunksAll  byte array finally parse it into JSON 
      // Step 1: start the fetch
      const response = await fetch('https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits?per_page=100')
      const reader = response.body.getReader()

      // Step 2: get total length
      const contentLength = +response.headers.get('Content-Length')

      // Step 3: read the data
      let receivedLength = 0 // received that many bytes at the moment
      let chunks = [] // array of received binary chunks (comprises the body)
      while(true) {
        const {done, value} = await reader.read()
        if (done) break
        chunks.push(value)
        receivedLength += value.length
        console.log(`Received ${receivedLength} of ${contentLength}`)
      }

      // Step 4: concatenate chunks into single Uint8Array
      let chunksAll = new Uint8Array(receivedLength)
      let position = 0
      for(let chunk of chunks) {
        chunksAll.set(chunk, position)
        position += chunk.length
      }

      // Step 5: decode into a string
      let result = new TextDecoder("utf-8").decode(chunksAll)

      // We're done!
      let commits = JSON.parse(result)
      console.log(commits[0].author.login)
       Binary content instead of a string... just replace steps 4 and 5 with a single line that creates a  Blob  from chunks. 
      let blob = new Blob(chunks)
       Abort object fetch returns a promise, no concept to abort it there is a special object  new AbortController()  that allows to abort asynchronous tasks const controller = new AbortController() controller.abort()  abort! controller.signal  emits the "abort" event controller.signal.aborted  property becomes  true The party that performs a cancelable operation gets the "signal" object and sets the listener to trigger when  controller.abort()  is called. 
      const signal = controller.signal
      signal.addEventListener('abort', () => alert("abort!"))
       Abort fetch request to cancel fetch, pass the  signal  property of an  AbortController  as a fetch option fetch will listen to abort events on signal when a fetch is aborted, its promise rejects with an error  AbortError so we should handle it, e.g. in  try..catch AbortController  allows to cancel multiple fetches at once 
      let controller = new AbortController()
      // abort in 1 second
      setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), 1000)

      try {
        let response = await fetch('/article/fetch-abort/demo/hang', {
          signal: controller.signal
        })
      } catch(err) {
        if (err.name == 'AbortError') { // handle abort()
          alert("Aborted!")
        } else {
          throw err
        }
      }
       Abort multiple fetches... 
      const urls = ['url1', 'url2', 'url3']
      const controller = new AbortController()

      const fetchJobs = urls.map(url => fetch(url, {
        signal: controller.signal
      }))

      const results = await Promise.all(fetchJobs)
      controller.abort() // if called from anywhere, it aborts all fetches
       Abort asynchronous task together with fetches... 
      const urls = ['url1', 'url2', 'urlN'] 
      const controller = new AbortController()
      const ourJob = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        //...
        controller.signal.addEventListener('abort', reject)
      })

      const fetchJobs = urls.map(url => fetch(url, {
        signal: controller.signal
      }))

      const results = await Promise.all([...fetchJobs, ourJob])
       Fetch API https://javascript.info/fetch Most of these options are used rarely 
      const promise = fetch(url, {
        method: "GET", // POST, PUT, DELETE, etc
        headers: {
          // the content type header value is usually auto-set depending on the request body
          "Content-Type": "text/plain;charset=UTF-8"
        },
        body: undefined, // string, FormData, Blob, BufferSource, or URLSearchParams
        referrer: "about:client", // or "" to send no Referer header, or an url from the current origin
        referrerPolicy: "no-referrer-when-downgrade", // no-referrer, origin, same-origin...
        // This option may be useful when the URL for fetch comes from a 3rd-party
        mode: "cors", // same-origin, no-cors
        // whether fetch should send cookies and HTTP-Authorization headers with the request
        credentials: "same-origin", // omit, include
        // The cache options allows to ignore HTTP-cache or fine-tune its usage
        cache: "default", // no-store, reload, no-cache, force-cache, or only-if-cached
        // Normally, fetch transparently follows HTTP-redirects, like 301, 302 etc.
        // The redirect option allows to change that: "follow" – the default, follow HTTP-redirects, "error" – error in case of HTTP-redirect, "manual" – allows to process HTTP-redirects manually.
        redirect: "follow", // manual, error
        // The integrity option allows to check if the response matches the known-ahead checksum.
        // Then fetch will calculate SHA-256 on its own and compare it with our string
        // In case of a mismatch, an error is triggered.
        integrity: "", // a hash, like "sha256-abcdef1234567890"
        // We can use the window.onunload event normally associated network requests are aborted
        // keepalive option tells the browser to perform the request in the background, even after it leaves the page
        keepalive: false, // true
        signal: undefined, // AbortController to abort request 
        window: window // null
      })
       Long polling simplest way of having persistent connection with server no need to periodically request info, which is good performance wise no delay in messaging a request is sent from browser to the server connection hangs, the server doesn’t close the connection until it has a message to send when a message appears the server responds to the request with it connection is closed the browser makes a new request immediately and so on... long polling works great in situations when messages are rare subscribe()  function makes a fetch, then waits for the response, handles it and calls itself again server should be ok with many pending connections 
      async function subscribe() {
        let response = await fetch("/subscribe")
      
        if (response.status == 502) {
          // Status 502 is a connection timeout error,
          // may happen when the connection was pending for too long,
          // and the remote server or a proxy closed it
          // let's reconnect
          await subscribe()
        } else if (response.status != 200) {
          // An error - let's show it
          showMessage(response.statusText)
          // Reconnect in one second
          await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
          await subscribe()
        } else {
          // Get and show the message
          let message = await response.text()
          showMessage(message)
          // Call subscribe() again to get the next message
          await subscribe()
        }
      }
      
      subscribe()
       Fetch not catching some errors For ex. it does not throw an 403 error and you need to manually check the response.  Axios just throws an error. 

fetch

Let's fetch data from    jsonplaceholder  and set a state with  useState()  hook upon success or error, which will lead to a render. We put artificial 1s delay function between request and response to be able to see a state change on a screen, otherwise it happens too fast. 
        function sleeper(ms) {
          return function(x) {
            return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(() => resolve(x), ms));
          };
        }
       Jsonplaceholder  returns 100 items, so every time we ask data under number 101 and more we get an error for our http request. 
      import axios from 'axios'
      import randomNumFromTo from '/functions/randomNumFromTo';
      import sleeper from '/functions/sleeper';

      function ComponentWithUseState() {
        const [state, setState] = useState({ loading: false, errorMsg: '', title: '', postNum: -1 })
      
        function getTitle() {
          const postNum = randomNumFromTo(1, 150)
          const url = `https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/${postNum}`
          setState({ ...state, loading: true, postNum: postNum, errorMsg: '' })
          axios(url)
            .then(sleeper(1000))
            .then(res => setState({ loading: false, errorMsg: '', title: res.data.title, postNum: postNum }))
            .catch(() => setState({ loading: false, errorMsg: 'ERROR', title: '', postNum: postNum }))
        }
      
        return (
          <>
            <button onClick={getTitle}>Get post titles</button>&emsp;
            Post #{state.postNum} &emsp; Title: {state.loading ? 'Loading...' : state.title} &emsp;
            <span style={{ color: 'red' }}>{state.errorMsg}</span>
          </>
        )
      }

        Animated hover
      </Button>
        Variants Variants allows to extract  initial ,  animate  &  transition  props into an external object and reference it in multiple components. It makes code cleaner 
      const containerVariants = {
        hidden: { opacity: 0, x: '-100vw' },
        visible: { opacity: 1, x: 0, transition: { type: 'spring', delay: 1} }
      }

      const Example4 = () => (
        <motion.div
          variants={containerVariants}
          initial='hidden'
          animate='visible'
          css={{ fontSize: '30px' }}
        >
          Animated text
        </motion.div>
      )
        Variants props propagation If we have a parent motions element with enabled variants And it has children with another motions elements with same variant prop Then children will inherit  initial  and  animate  props from the parent, unless not specified other values 
      const containerVariants = {
        hidden: { opacity: 0, x: '-100vw' },
        visible: { opacity: 1, x: 0, transition: { type: 'spring', delay: 1 } }
      }

      const Example5 = ({ children }) => (
        <motion.div
          variants={containerVariants}
          initial='hidden'
          animate='visible'
          css={{ fontSize: '30px' }}
        >
          Parent motion
          { children }
        </motion.div>
      )

      const Example6 = ({ children }) => (
        <motion.div
          variants={containerVariants}
          css={{ color: 'grey' }}
        >
          Child motion

      )

      <Example5>
        <Example6 />
      </Example5>
        beforeChildren We have animated parent and children By default animations starts at the same time everywhere Usually we want parent to animate and only after start children animation We may play with delays, but that is not elegant With  variants  we can use  when  prop of  transition  with  beforeChildren  value to achieve it 
      const parentVariants = {
        hidden: { x: '-100vw' },
        visible: { x: 0, transition: { type: 'spring', delay: 1, when: 'beforeChildren' } }
      }

      const childVariants = {
        hidden: { y: '100%' },
        visible: { y: 0 }
      }

      const Example7 = ({ children }) => (
        <motion.div
          variants={parentVariants}
          initial='hidden'
          animate='visible'
          css={{ fontSize: '30px', overflow: 'hidden' }}

      const parentVariants2 = {

        visible: {
          x: 0,
          transition: {
            type: 'spring',
            delay: 1,
            when: 'beforeChildren',
            staggerChildren: 0.5
          }
        }
      }

      const childVariants2 = {
        hidden: { y: 100 },
        visible: { y: 0 }
      }

        </motion.button>
      )
        Animate unmount Before we just animated a component's appetence  With  AnimatePresence  can animate also removal of a component 
      import { motion, AnimatePresence } from 'framer-motion'

      const Example11 = () => {
        const [isShow, setIsShow] = useState(false)

        return (

                  animate={{ x: 0 }}

        )

        onAnimationComplete That is how I made a slide effect between invoices at my work.

here is the summary of 2 videos   this  &   this this is not only about folder structures, but also how modules interact with each other in that folders 4 different architecture design approaches are reviewed here Classical can be seen in simple apps and youtube tutorials it is not an architecture, but simply tech oriented folder structure applicable for small projects, prototypes, no team involved  with this approach components like pages are isolated but rest of all are not components are interconnected ui components are mixed with business logic at the end we end up in decoupled chaos without clear data flow  Modular Layers it is already an architecture with data flow rules it has mandatory layers  modules  inside have business oriented segments, which do not interact with each other module  is responsible for one task & ideally has all needed to do the task data flows vertically, code from lower layers can not import data from upper layers other folders will naturally appear and permitted  UI UI  layer has most generic UI blocks without any logic  Components components  layer contains a bit more complex components that may use blocks from  ui may include minimal business logic  Modules modules  layer has isolated independent parts with its own responsibilities main business logic is here here may appear apis, states, error handlers, validations, loading logic, etc... module can be big and difficult  module  contains all needed data and functionality inside to be independent from other modules modules  do not interact with each other all logic is encapsulated inside a module and data to the outside should go via public apis  index  file  Pages pages  layer is like  modules  on upper level  page  may have own components, apis, helpers, etc...  page  should be as thin as possible ideally it should be just a list of modules and components as much business logic, helpers, states etc... should be extracted down into modules if possible if 2 modules to be grouped, we do it on a page level  in real project it is not enough just to have  pages ,  modules ,   components  &  ui more global folders will be introduced, like  helpers ,  state ,   config ,  consts  etc...  Pros & cons + code isolation on module layer with public apis + one way data flow + reusability due to layers + modules are easy to modify & delete because pages are thin - not business oriented - not clear what goes to a component, what to a module - what do we do if one module should be used in other module, group logic on a page level, but what if we need it on different pages, then we have to duplicate it - where to keep business related entities like data, types & components for a product, an article, a user - unclear connections are formed in global folders like store, helpers, consts Modular architecture is a way better than classical, but does not fit well for a project with complex business logic and big variety of features Atomic design similar to modular architecture more design oriented was popular 4 years ago   Atomic vs modular design  Atoms  Molecules  Organisms  Templates  Pages  Feature sliced design https://feature-sliced.design/docs/get-started/overview in FSD, a project consists of  layers ,  slices  and   segments  layers are vertically arranged layers are common across all projects ❗️ code on one layer can only interact with code from the layers below In short Layers /shared  dummy ui and utils without any business logic /entities  THINGS which have shape, crud apis, components, internal business logic /features  ACTIONS we apply to THINGS to gain some business value /widgets  combination of shared + entities + features to an independent ready-made blocks, minimum business logic /pages  component which has its own route (layout + widgets), no business logic here /app  app-wide settings, providers, router, store 3 main rules imports can be done only in one way  app   <-- pages   <--   widgets   <--   features   <--   entities   <--   shared entity can not imports from other entity, same for features and widgets index.ts  should be on top level and show what is exposed outside This allows to do complex front end apps and it will not become a mess where all is cross-imported. It may be an overkill for small front end apps or for apps where all business logic is in the backend. Example  Shared layer reusable common functionality e.g. UIKit, libs, API ❗️No business logic here  Entities layer (opt) elements which have a business value e.g. BlogPost, User, Order, Product can include a ui components with slots for content/interactive elements should contain the logic to describe how entity looks and behaves e.g. static UI elements, data stores, CRUD operations, reducers, selectors, mappers  Features layer (opt) entity can act differently depending on features we apply to it feature is an action on entity to achieve a valuable outcome e.g. create-blog-post, login-by-auth, edit-account, publish-video, show-ad, grant-access, show-contact-information may contain interactive UI elements, internal state and API calls that enable value-producing actions  Widgets layer compositional layer to combine lower-level units from entities + features into meaningful assembled blocks with content and interactive buttons wired to the api calls e.g. PostCard, IssuesList, UserProfile in this layer we fill slots left in the UI of Entities with other Entities and interactive elements from Features usually non-business logic come here (e.g. gestures, keyboard interaction, etc) for reach widgets business logic is permitted ❗️ it might be hard to decide what goes into Entities and Features. Do not worry. Just put all logic into Widgets layer. You will feel later if it should be split into Entities and Features Pages layer compositional layer to construct full pages / views / routes ❗️ no business and minimum other logic here  App layer app-wide settings e.g. styles, providers, router, store  Slices a layer can be divided into business oriented slices to keep related code together it is the same as a module in modular design described above e.g. post, add-user-to-friends, news-feed... shared  and  app  layers never have slices as they do not have business logic inside ❗️ slices cannot use other slices on the same layer Closely related slices can be grouped in a folder, but they still should follow rule above ❗️ slices (and segments without slices) must contain the  index  file entry points (public API) with module re-exports code outside can not reference internal slice file structure, but public API only Segments a slice consists of segments to separate code by its technical nature, common segments, ❗️ but not necessarily are ui  ui-logic, components model  business logic, store, actions, selectors lib  utils, helpers, hooks api  communication with external APIs, backend API methods

frontend architecture

Function declaration Function declaration is "hoisted", like "var" in variable declarations. Can be called earlier than it is defined. 
        function showMessage() {
          alert( 'Hello everyone!' );
        } // note! NO semicolon at the end
        showMessage(); // 'Hello everyone!'
       Function is blocked scoped and not visible outside. 
      console.log(fn1()); // "hi"
      console.log(fn2()); // fn2 is not a function !!!
    
      function fn1 () { return "hi"; }
    
      {
        function fn2 () { return "hi" }
      }
       Parameters Full  article  about default parameters can be found here. 
        function showMessage(text) {
          alert(text);
        }
        showMessage('empty message'); // empty message
    
        // default parameters
        function showMessage(text = 'empty message') {
          alert(text);
        }
        showMessage(); // empty message
    
        // default parameters - old fashioned way
        function showMessage(text) {
          if (text === undefined) {
            text = 'empty message';
          }
          alert(text);
        }
        showMessage(); // empty message
    
        // default parameters - improved
        function showMessage(text) {
          text = text || 'empty message';
          alert(text);
        }
        showMessage(); // empty message
       Return Function stops at  return 
        function checkAge(age) {
          if (age >= 18) {
            return 'adult'; // function stops after "return"
          } else {
            return 'underaged';
          }
        }
        checkAge(20) // 'adult'
       Call without parenthesis Shows string representation of the source code 
        function xxx() {
          let a = 1+1;
        }
        console.log(xxx); // xxx() {let a = 1+1;}
       Copy function 
        function sayHi() { alert( "Hello" ); }
        let func = sayHi;
        sayHi === func // true
        func(); // Hello
        sayHi(); // Hello
       Callback It is a function passed to another function as an argument and will be called back later. Simple callback function example. 
      function func(cb) {
        alert('in 1 sec callback func will be triggered')
        setTimeout(() => cb(), 1000)
      }
      
      const msg = () => alert('callback func is triggered')
      
      func(msg)
       Another example.  
        function ask(question, yes, no) {
          if (confirm(question)) yes()
          else no();
        }

        ask(
          "Do you agree?",
          function showOk() { alert("You agreed."); },
          function showCancel() { alert("You canceled the execution."); }
        );

        // if we extract functions from arguments we may just use function names
        ask("Do you agree?", showOk, showCancel); 
       Recursion Recursion is when a function calls itself. JavaScript engine allows 10000 calls maximum. 
      function sumToRec(num) {
        if (num == 1) return num
        if (num > 1) return num + sumToRec(num - 1)
      }
      sumToRec(4) // 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10
       Arguments Functions have special array-like object named 'arguments' that contains all arguments by their index. 
      function args() {
        return( [arguments.length, arguments[0],arguments[1]] );
      }
      args("Julius", "Caesar") // [2, 'Julius', 'Caesar']
      args("Ilya") // [1, 'Ilya', undefined]
       Immediately - invoked function expressions IIFE requires semicolon before They don’t pollute the global object 
      (function() {
        alert("Parentheses around the function");
      })();
  
      (function() {
        alert("Parentheses around the whole thing");
      }());
  
      !function() {
        alert("Bitwise NOT operator starts the expression");
      }();
  
      +function() {
        alert("Unary plus starts the expression");
      }();
       Function is object .name property 
      function sayHi() {}
      sayHi.name; // "sayHi"
       .length property 
      function func(a, b, c, d) {}
      function many(a, b, ...more) {}
      func.length // 4
      many.length // 2 // rest parameters are not counted
       Custom properties in function 
        function sayHi() {
          return("Hi");
        }
        sayHi.wife = ' Kate' // initial value
        sayHi() + sayHi.wife // 'Hi Kate'
       Function expression  
      let myFunc = function(name) { alert( `Hello, ${name}` ); };
       Named Function Expression Allows the function to reference itself internally  
      let sayHi = function func(who) {
        if (who) {
          alert(`Hello, ${who}`);
        } else {
          func("Guest"); // use func to re-call itself
        }
      };
      sayHi(); // Hello, Guest
       Function declaration vs expression Hoisting, function expression is created when the execution reaches it and is usable only from that moment (not "hoisted") 
      sayHi1("John"); // Hello, John
      function sayHi1(name) { alert( `Hello, ${name}` ); }
  
      sayHi2("John"); // error!
      let sayHi2 = function(name) { alert( `Hello, ${name}` ); };
       Function expressions can have a conditional declaration 
      let age = prompt("What is your age?", 18);
      let welcome = (age < 18) ?  function() { alert("Hello!"); } :  function() { alert("Greetings!"); };
      welcome(); // "Greetings!"
       Arrow function expression Convenient for simple one-line actions. 
      // the curly braces are needed for a multiline function
      // if we use curly braces, then we need an explicit "return"
      let sum = (a, b) => {  
        let result = a + b;
        return result; 
      };
  
      // same, but shorter
      let sum = (a, b) => a + b;

      // same, but even shorter
      let sum = function(a, b) {return a + b;};
  
      // with a single argument
      let double = n => n * 2; // no parentheses
  
      // w/o arguments

       new Function Function is created from a string & have access only to global, but not LE

       Decorators(call / apply / bind) Function that takes another function and alters its behavior, the main job is still carried out by the function .call() Method calls a function with a given "this" and arguments provided individually 
      // func.call([thisArg], [arg1, arg2, argN])
      // The call() allows for a function/method belonging to one object to be assigned and called for a different object.
      // With call(), you can write a method once and then inherit it in another object, w/o having to rewrite the method for the new object.
      // thisArg - maybe null or undefined
      
      function say(phrase) { alert(this.name + ' ' + phrase) }
      let user = { name: "John" }
      say.call( user, "hello" ) // John: Hello

      // user becomes "this", and "Hello" becomes the "argument"
       .apply() Method calls a function with a given "this" value, and arguments provided as an array 
        //apply(thisArg, [argsArray])

        // difference from call() is a list of arguments taken as an array-like object
        // Instead of func.call(this, ...arguments) we could use func.apply(this, arguments).
        // func.call and func.apply are almost the same
        // thisArg - maybe null or undefined
        
        // func.call(context, ...args);
        // same as
        // func.apply(context, args);

        const numbers = [5, 6, 2, 3, 7]
        console.log(Math.max.apply(null, numbers)) //7
       .bind() Method creates a new function with "this" keyword set to the provided value & with a given sequence of arguments 
        let user = {
          firstName: "John",
          sayHi() { alert('Hello ' + this.firstName) }
        };
        user.sayHi() // 'Hello, John'
        setTimeout(user.sayHi, 1000); // Hello, undefined
        // setTimeout in-browser is a little special: it sets this=window for the function call

        let sayHi = user.sayHi.bind(user);
        sayHi(); // 'Hello, John'
        setTimeout(sayHi, 1000); // 'Hello, John'

        function mul(a, b) {return a * b}
        let double = mul.bind(null, 2);
        // 2 as the first argument. Further arguments are passed “as is”
        double(3) // = mul(2, 3) = 6
        double(4) // = mul(2, 4) = 8
        double(5) // = mul(2, 5) = 10

        // bound function can not be re-bound
       Lexical Environment Execution Context  (EC, stack, call stack) is the internal JS engine to track execution of a function or the global code EC  tracks where statement of the corresponding function is being executed New  EC  is created and pushed to the stack when execution of a function begins and deleted when stops For every  EC  a corresponding LE is created Lexical Environment  (LE) is the internal JS engine that holds names of variables/functions & a reference to a parent  LE Running function, block  {} , and the script as a whole have an internal hidden object  [[Environment]]  with reference to its  LE Every function tracks the  LE  related to the  EC it was created in & its parent  LE [[Environment]]  stores all local variables & 'this' & other...& a reference to outer  LE With  [[Environment]]  a function remembers where it was born Variable is a property of  [[Environment]]  object, associated with the executing block/function/script Variable change means a change of  [[Environment]]  property object On function start  LE  is pre-populated with variables, but their state is  uninitialized Engine knows about variables, but cannot be referenced until it has been declared with with  let ,  const When  let  definition appears, variable's value is  undefined Variable goes to  LE , but get initialized in code execution flow Function declaration  is instantly fully initialized unlike  function expressions LE  is a specification object & exists “theoretically”, we can’t get this object in our code When the code accesses a variable the JS searches it in  LE  chain up to the global one LE  is removed from memory with all the variables after the function call finishes But not in case of nested functions.  LE  object dies when it becomes unreachable (just like other objects) Closure Closure  is a function that remembers its outer variables and can access them Functions in JavaScript are  closures In some languages, that’s not possible Closures  remember where they were created using a hidden  [[Environment]]  property Their code can access outer variables The  new Function  syntax is not a  closure Function can be returned and then used somewhere else and no matter where, it still has access to the same outer variables Lexical environment  is created on function initialization & it is separate for every function 
      function makeCounter() {
        let count = 0
      
        return function() {
          return count++
        }
      }
      
      let counter = makeCounter()
      let counter2 = makeCounter()
      
      counter() // 0
      counter() // 1
      
      counter2() // 0
      counter2() // 1
       Currying Currying is a transformation of  func(a, b, c)  into  func(a)(b)(c) Simple example 
      function curry(f) { 
        return function(a) {
          return function(b) {
            return f(a, b)
          }
        }
      }
      
      function sum(a, b) {
        return a + b
      }
      
      let curriedSum = curry(sum)
      curriedSum(1)(2) // 3
       Advanced example 
      function curry(func) {
        return function curried(...args) {
          if (args.length >= func.length) return func.apply(this, args)
          // Function.length - number of parameters expected by the function
  
          return function(...args2) {
            return curried.apply(this, args.concat(args2))
          }
        }
      }
      
      function sum(a, b, c) {
        return a + b + c
      }
      
      let curriedSum = curry(sum)
      
      alert( curriedSum(1, 2, 3) ) // 6, still callable normally
      alert( curriedSum(1)(2, 3) ) // 6, currying of 1st arg
      alert( curriedSum(1)(2)(3) ) // 6, full currying
       Maybe better to use _.curry  function from Lodash.

Regular function returns single value or nothing Generator can return multiple values, one after another by calling  yield Generator function needs to have a  *  symbol:  function* Generator function creates a generator object  [object Generator] Code execution does not start on generator creation, but on  .next()  call Result of  .next()  is an object with two properties:  {value: 1, done: false} Syntax 
      function* generateSequence1() {
        yield 1
        yield 2
        yield 3
      }
  
      let generator1 = generateSequence1() // generateSequence {<suspended>}
      let one = generator1.next() // {value: 1, done: false}
      let two = generator1.next() // {value: 2, done: false}

      }
      alert(str) // 0..9A..Za..z
       Pass values from next  to   yield yield  not only returns the result to the outside, but can pass the value inside the generator 
      function* gen() {

Just watched a nice  video  how to make a glassy element with CSS. Let's replicate. 
      function Cmpt() {
          return (
            <Div>
              <div className="bkg"> 
                <div className="glass">
                  <H>Glass style</H>
                  <input type="text" placeholder="search" />
                  <div className="container">
                    <div className="card">Card 1</div>
                    <div className="card">Card 2</div>
                  </div>
                </div>
              </div>
            </Div>
          )
        }
        
        const Div = styled.div `
          .bkg {
            height: 500px;

            display: flex;
            align-items: center;
            flex-direction: column;
          }
          .container {

            align-items: center;
        
          }
          .card {
            background-image: linear-gradient(to right bottom, rgba(255,255,255,0.8), rgba(255,255,255,0.5) );
            border-radius: 10px;
            height: 30%;
            width: 80%;
            margin: 20px;
            box-shadow: 6px 6px 20px rgba(122,122,122,0.2);
            padding: 10px;
            color: #426696;
          }
          `
        Manipulate the parent background color to have different glassy styles.

Linear gradient We will speak only about linear gradient here, but there are more: Linear gradient (goes down/up/left/right/diagonally) Radial gradient (defined by their center) Conic gradient (rotated around a center point) Gradient is an image, not a color. We can assign it to  background-image: linear-gradient(red, green) . CSS is smart enough to understand if you declare gradient to a shorthand  background: linear-gradient(red, green) . From top to bottom By default the gradient line goes from the top to the bottom. Prev. example looks like. 
      background: linear-gradient(red, green)
        From top to right We can specify the direction of the gradient line. 
      background: linear-gradient(to top right, red, green)
        Angle direction Or use an angle.  Line goes through the center of the box. The colors of the gradient are determined by several points. Start & end points are defined by the intersection the line with a perpendiculars from the box corners. Start & end points are symmetrical from center. 
      background: linear-gradient(0deg, red, green)
       Or use an angle. Note that as far as the div shape is not square, the line doesn't go diagonally.  Or use an angle. Note that as far as the div shape is not square, the line doesn't go diagonally. 
      background: linear-gradient(45deg, red, green)
        Multiple colors We can have multiple comma separated colors. 
      background: linear-gradient(red, white, green)
        Color start point You can set a start point for a color. 
      background: linear-gradient(to right, red 0%, white 10%, green 50%);
        Fixed background Background image can span across the whole container or can be fixed. Check the difference.    Text gradient

      .heading:has(.subtitle) p { }
       Selects any  p  tag that is inside a  .heading  element as long as that  .heading  element contains a  .subtitle  element Multiple has selectors 
      .heading:has(.subtitle, p) { }

i18next i18next  is a package to translate a website Resources translations are kept in  resources  property usually translation files are kept in deferent files (objects) which makes its maintenance a bit difficult 
      i18next.init({
        resources: {
          en: {
            translation: {
              "key": "hello"

Install package  React-icons   package can be installed with  npm i react-icons  from terminal  Whole set of icons can be checked  here Usage  We can use icons as JSX components  <Icon />  or assign them to variables  const iconVar = React.createElement(Icon)  Styles can be applied on svg  <Icon style={styles}/> 
      import { FaRedhat } from 'react-icons/fa'
      import { FaRedhat as HatIcon } from 'react-icons/fa'

      const icon = React.createElement(HatIcon)
      const styles = { verticalAlign: 'middle', fill: 'red', fontSize: '100px', width: '100px', height: 'auto', margin: '3px', color: 'blue', opacity: '.5', strokeWidth: '10px' }

      function Component() {
        return (
          <>
            <FaRedhat /> 
            <HatIcon /> 
            {icon} 
            <HatIcon style={styles}/>
            <span className='rotate'>
              <FaRedhat /> 
              
              <style jsx>{`
                .rotate :global(svg) {
                  color: blue;
                  animation-name: spin;
                  animation-duration: 4s;
                  animation-iteration-count: infinite;
                }
                @keyframes spin { 
                  100% { transform:rotate(360deg); } 
                }
              `}</style>
            </span>
          </>
        )
      }
        Search for icons All available icons are presented  here To import an icon you need to know exact package name  import { FaRedhat } from 'react-icons/fa'  -  /fa  in this example When you search for an icons via search input, it is not obvious what the package icon comes from Better to go manually through packages on the left side and manually look for an icon

Image via import in React In React an image can be imported as a module Webpack will place an image under  build  root folder into  /build/static/media/  and add some hash to a file name Imported variable will be resolved to a path in html  src  attribute in react  
      import football from '/pics/football.jpg'
      const ImportImage = () => <img src={football.src} />
       Image via import in Next Imported image variable  variable.src  will be resolved to path in  src  attribute in Next Image from public folder We can manually place an image under  public  folder, for ex.  /public/imgs/va/bulldogs.jpg And then reference it via image  src  property value, like  <img src="/imgs/va/bulldogs.jpg" /> When a production version is built the content of  public  folder goes into  build  folder and references will not break  
      const ReferenceImageDirectly = () => <img src='/imgs/va/bulldogs.jpg' />
       Lazy image Ones page is hit all images are loaded, which is not efficient. We load images dynamically on scroll. Lazy images in html Add  loading="lazy"  attribute to  img  tag <img src="/path" loading="lazy" alt="…"  height="200"/> In dev tools we can see that images are loaded on scroll when we approach them one by one We can not control this browser behavior 
      function LazyImagesInHtml() {
        return (
          <div className='container'>

        Lazy images in React  We can use  react-lazyload  package With this package we have a control on offset scroll distance to an image when it starts being downloaded Note. Did not manage to make it work in a scrollable container. 
      // components/post/LazyImg.js
      import LazyLoad from 'react-lazyload'

      export function LazyImg(props) {
        return (

Idea With  Immer  we can deeply clone an object and modify the property. Handy for a state update in React. Installation npm i immer Without immer 
      const abcde = { a: 'a', b: { c: 'c', d: { e: 'e' } } }
      
      const abcdef = { ...abcde, b: { ...abcde.b, d: { ...abcde.b.d, f: 'f' } } }
      // { a: 'a', b: { c: 'c', d: { e: 'e' , f: 'f' } } }
       With immer 
      import { produce } from 'immer'
      const abcde = { a: 'a', b: { c: 'c', d: { e: 'e' } } }
      const abcdef = produce(abcde, (obj) => {
        obj.b.d.f = 'f'
      })
      // { a: 'a', b: { c: 'c', d: { e: 'e' , f: 'f' } } }

Custom hook to check if it is a first render or not. 
      // /functions/useIsInitRender'
      import { useRef, useEffect } from 'react'

      export default function useIsInitRender() {
        const isInitRender = useRef(true)
        useEffect(() => { isInitRender.current = false }, [])
        return isInitRender.current
      }
       
      import useIsInitRender from '/functions/useIsInitRender'
      
      function Component() {
        const [state, setState] = useState(0)
        const isInitRender = useIsInitRender()

        return (
          <>
            <div>First render? <b>{isFirstRender.toString()}</b></div>
            <div>Counter: <b>{state}</b></div>
            <button onClick={() => setState(state + 1)}>Plus +1</button>
          </>
        )
      }
       

initial render

Uncontrolled component  Uncontrolled component data is handled by the DOM.   We need to use  useRef()   hook  to get form values from the DOM.  inpRef.current  refers to the DOM element. 
      import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react';

      function UncontrolledInput() {
        const [inpVal, setInpVal] = useState('initial text');
        const inpRef = useRef('initial text')

        return (
          <>
            <h1>{inpVal}</h1>
            <input
              ref={inpRef}
              type="text"
              value={inpVal}
              onChange={() => setInpVal(inpRef.current.value)}
            />
          </>
        );
      }

      <UncontrolledInput />
        Controlled component Controlled component data is handled by a React component via  useState()   hook .  Event handler takes care of a state update. 
      import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react';

      function ControlledInput() {
        const [inpVal, setInpVal] = useState('initial text');

        return (
          <>
            <h1>{inpVal}</h1>
            <input
              type="text"
              value={inpVal}
              onChange={e => setInpVal(e.target.value)}
            />
          </>
        );
      }

      <ControlledInput />
        Custom hook for input Form with input With controlled component input values are always driven by the React state and we always need to create such logic for every input. We control input value via react state with  onChange  event On form submit we prevent the default action and do our logic After submission we reset input fields with initial empty string 
      function FormWithInputWithoutCustomHook() {
        const [nameState, setNameState] = useState('')

        const submitHandler = e => {
          e.preventDefault()
          alert(`hello ${nameState}`)
          setNameState('')
        }

        return (
          <form onSubmit={submitHandler}>
            <input placeholder="Name" value={nameState} onChange={e => setNameState(e.target.value)} />
            <button>Submit</button>
          </form>
        )
      }
      <FormWithInputWithoutCustomHook />
        Custom hook for input Let's make a custom hook for an input control We extract the logic into a separate file  useInput.js  and export back the input  value  &  onChange  attributes in the object + reset function 
      // functions\ useInput.js
      import { useState } from 'react'

      export default function useInput(initVal = '') {
        const [val, setVal] = useState(initVal)
        const reset = () => setVal(initVal)
        const bind = {
          value: val,
          onChange: e => setVal(e.target.value)
        }
        return [val, bind, reset]
      }
       Input with custom hook In the main file we bring and destruct values from the custom hook Note how we bring  value  and  onChange  attributes by spreading the object into the input field 
      import useInput from '/functions/useInput'

      function FormWithInputWithCustomHook() {
        const [nameState, bindName, resetName] = useInput()

        const submitHandler = e => {
          e.preventDefault()
          alert(`hello ${nameState}`)
          resetName()
        }

        return (
          <form onSubmit={submitHandler}>
            <input placeholder="Name" {...bindName} />
            <button>Submit</button>
          </form>
        )
      }
      <FormWithInputWithCustomHook />
       

input in react

Intersection observer   allows to call a function when an element intersects specified parent element. 
        import React from 'react';
        import { Lnk } from '../components/Post/Lnk';

        function Component() {
          const ref = React.useRef(null);
          const [state, setState] = React.useState(0)

          React.useEffect(() => {
            const target = ref.current;
            const options = {
              // element that is used as the viewport for checking visibility of the target 
              // default is the browser viewport
              root: document.documentElement, 
              // margin around the root, grow or shrink bounding box before computing intersections 
              // default 0
              rootMargin: '0px', 
              // observer triggers at 70% of targets visibility 
              // default 0 - means as soon as target gets visible
              threshold: .7, 
            }

            function callback(entries, observer) {
              // entries - target elements
              // cb is triggered when el goes in & out of the view
              // ignore going out & trigger cb only when div comes into the view
              if (!entries[0].isIntersecting) return 
              console.log('intersected')
              setState(prev => prev + 1)
            }

            const observer = new IntersectionObserver(callback, options);
            observer.observe(target);

            return () => {
              // Stop watching for intersection events
              observer.unobserve(target)
              // Stop observing
              observer.disconnect()
            }
          }, []);

          return (
            <>
              <div style={{ height: '200px', width: '300px', overflow: 'auto' }}>
                <div style={{ height: '250px', background: 'grey' }}>Scroll me</div>
                <div style={{ background: 'OldLace' }}>Observer intersected x{state} times</div>
                <div style={{ height: '100px', background: 'LightPink ' }} ref={ref}>Target element</div>
              </div>
            </>
          );
        }

isLetter function Cool trick how to check if the string is a letter and not a space or punctuation Lower and upper cases for letters are different strings But for rest of characters there is no effect, it is the same string 
      function isLetter(char) {
        if (char.toLowerCase() !== char.toUpperCase()) return true
        return false
      }
