Last week I had the pleasure to give a talk about JavaScript from the point of view of a web developer, in the Master on Free Software.

I tried to focus the session on the tools that JavaScript provides to web programmers, but also on the language itself and its special features, to finish with an overview of two popular libraries, jQuery and ExtJS, which boost the power of JavaScript for web development.

I wish I had the chance to show some JavaScript on the desktop too. Next year, maybe? 😉

I leave here the material of the talk:
