Abstract

As web developers, we face so many challenges daily to complete our tasks. For example, we might need to find an element matching a predicate in a collection, parse this JSON to compute some other values, replace the text in this paragraph to something else, and many more. Each of those challenges is not particularly hard, but it’s not very easy either. Most importantly, it’s not very related to your problem domain. It’s just not practical and efficient to rewrite such code over and over again. In this chapter, we will learn to be practical. We will learn about essential libraries that help you with common, day-to-day tasks as a web developer.
