Modular JavaScript is an open effort to improve our collective understanding of writing robust, well-tested, and modular applications. The series consists of five books, each of which explores a key aspect of JavaScript development — comprehensively. The books are produced in the open: anyone can track their progress, report issues & contribute fixes or content. A free-to-read version is available online! Digital & print books can be purchased through O’Reilly Media. The crowdfunding campaign launched last week on Indiegogo! 
It’s already over 100% funded! |  |

I spent a week traveling around Taiwan, on my awesome free roaming 2G data plan, and friends, we need to talk about your web fonts. Also cats. They really love cats there. Anyway, the thing about 2G is that I fully understand that it will take me 10 seconds to load a page. What sucks is the fresh rage of the following 4 seconds where instead of content I get phantom underlines, waiting for a slightly-different-sans-serif to download. |
