This week, again, we have a lot of great articles. Angular and general JavaScript is the hottest topics. So let's dive right into it.
Design patterns are always an actual topic. That's why we recommend you a great article "Design patterns in modern JavaScript development" by Kristian Poslek.
Amsterdam JSNation had an interesting interview with Kyle Simpson, "Kyle Simpson: I’ve Forgotten More JavaScript Than Most People Ever Learn".
Angular developers might be interested in "How to Safely Access Attributes in Angular Using “?.”" by Chidume Nnamdi while their React colleagues can "Build a Super-Modular Todo App with React and Bit Components" with Josh Kuttler.
Vue.js developers will certainly enjoy Michael Lin's article "How to build a large Vue application".

Design patterns in modern JavaScript development
Thoughts on effective communication in the design of software projects Definitely. As is the case with object-oriented programming, we, the developers, are trying to model the world surrounding us. As such, it makes sense to also try and use the world surrounding us as a tool to describe our craft.

Here I'll share some of what I learned... but first, a short intro. The JavaScript landscape is shaping towards components.

5 must-read JavaScript tutorials
JavaScript has become the most popular programming language for web developers today. It's the only language that is implemented in the web browser, but its uses aren't strictly limited to web development. Thanks to the invention of Node.js, you can now use JavaScript to create desktop applications, mobile applications, static sites, and even use it for machine learning.

Exploring the hidden potential of JavaScript arrays!
Undoubtedly, arrays are one of the most useful and extremely popular JS data structures. These indexed collections proved time and time again that they're still the best (if not only) choice for a various number of use cases. But, arrays themselves wouldn't be so valuable without their whole, extremely expressive API.

What are Controlled Components in React?
There are quite a lot of articles about React out there speaking about controlled and uncontrolled components without explaining them. It has been quite similar for my articles, whereas I always tried to add at least one or two sentences explaining them, but in the end, I thought it would be great to have a brief tutorial just showing a simple example for controlled components in React.

How to build a large Vue application
The MVVM of the Observable model gives Vue a natural advantage in small and medium-sized Web applications, but with the growing popularity of Vue, Vue's use in large projects is slightly awkward. Obviously, in high complexity projects, type checking has become a required feature, and Vue2's type checking support in TypeScript is not good enough, and importantly the modular design of Vuex's state logic is lacking.

The Power of Named Transitions in Vue
Vue offers several ways to control how an element or component visually appears when inserted into the DOM. Examples can be fading in, sliding in, or other visual effects. Almost all of this functionality is based around a single component: the transition component. A simple example of this is with a single v-if based on a Boolean.

The perfect unit test
There's a common theme I find with people who tell me that they don't find unit testing useful, and it's normally that they are writing bad tests. This is completely understandable, particularly if you're newer to unit testing. It's hard to write good tests and it takes practice to get there.

Functional Programming
How do you compose JavaScript functions with multiple parameters?
As functional programmers, we like to piece our programs together out of small pieces. Our main tool for this is composition. We take an input, process it through a function, then pass it on to another function. And this all works great so long as all our functions take exactly one argument.
