JavaScript is a great and fun programming language. It's very important to find a way to learn new things about language itself as well as general programming concepts. This week we are very lucky since we have many great articles that will help us with this task.
We highly recommend a great article "Understanding Memoization in JavaScript to Improve Performance" by Chidume Nnamdi. You will learn what memoization is and how you can use it to improve application performance.
A bit more JavaScript specific topic is covered in the excellent article "Understanding Javascript Mutation and Pure Functions" by Chidume Nnamdi. You shouldn't miss this one.
One more article that's a must read this week is "Transducers: Efficient Data Processing Pipelines in JavaScript" by Eric Elliott. As a part of the series on learning functional JavaScript programming, you have great opportunity to learn some great programming techniques.
Developers interested in redux will surely enjoy "An Unforgettable Way to Learn Redux — The Visual Guide" by Ohans Emmanuel.
Finally, Vue.js developers would want to check out "Build a Vue App with Firebase Authentication and Database" by Rajat S.

Map, Filter, Reduce vs For Loops (syntax)
The intention of this post is not to say one paradigm is better than the other. It is just to show common imperative patterns you run into and their functional equivalents. Sometimes things are easier to learn if you can relate it to something you are already familiar with and be given a map on how to transition back and forth.
