JAVASCRIPT: State of JavaScript 2017. The State of JavaScript 2017 has released its features and opinion survey results. The report was released last month with the promise of adding more results in the coming weeks. The features section looks at what features developers value the most. All features were considered nice to have, but not important. Code splitting, hot module reloading, and dead code elimination were voted as major features, with the percent of votes almost as high in those sections as they were for nice-to-have features. Most developers agreed with the statements presented to them in the opinions section, such as “JavaScript is moving in the right direction” and “I enjoy building JavaScript apps.” The only statement that developers did not agree with was “JavaScript is over-used online.” Read more
