Abstract
In this chapter, I explain some of the techniques I use to create better JavaScript. This is not a language guide, and I won’t be demonstrating any code hacks or tweaks. My coding preferences are your maintenance nightmares, and vice versa. I have seen otherwise mild-mannered people end up in a screaming match over the “right” way to code, and I don’t see the point in lecturing you when I have a fair few bad habits myself.
