JavaScript Logic for Web and Mobile

Like Duolingo, but for JavaScript Logic for Web and Mobile. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.

For the part of you with thirty open tabs that never became anything.

24 levels across 3 sections, about 48 minutes end to end, roughly 10 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Thinking in Logic Patterns, Building for Every Screen, and Advanced Execution and Performance. It assumes you already know the basics.

What you'll learn

Key ideas in JavaScript Logic for Web and Mobile

  • Guard clauses exit a function early when a required condition is not met
  • Objects and Maps act as O(1) lookup tables for key-value pairs
  • Flattening nested logic prevents the 'arrow code' anti-pattern in functions
  • Lookup tables are easier to extend than hard-coded switch cases
  • Placing error checks at the top allows the 'happy path' to run un-indented
  • Bracket notation allows accessing object properties using dynamic variables
  • Applying guard clauses to reduce cognitive load in complex functions
  • Replacing complex switch statements with data-driven lookup tables
  • The || operator returns the right side if the left is any falsy value like 0
  • The ?? operator only triggers for null or undefined values
  • Nullish coalescing prevents bugs when 0 or empty strings are valid data
  • Ternary operators are best for simple binary choices in JSX or templates
  • Nesting ternaries significantly reduces code legibility and debuggability
  • Complex UI logic should be moved to helper functions or separate variables
  • Empty strings, 0, and NaN are considered falsy in JavaScript
  • Distinguishing between logical OR (||) and nullish coalescing (??) for defaults
