ECMAScript 6: what’s next for JavaScript?
The next version of JavaScript is called ECMAScript 6 (the current one is ECMAScript 5). This version will be a standard by the end of 2014, but you can already use it now, on current engines. This talk explains how to do that, after giving a thorough tour of the new language features: block-scoped variables, arrow functions, better parameter handling, classes, modules and more. We will also look at the goals and the design process for ECMAScript 6.
