> Thank you daily.dev for sharing my book. I hope this book can help people who are learning JavaScript.

> Most JavaScript tutorial would combine JavaScript with HTML and CSS and show you how to build a website.
>
> As a result, people would think that JavaScript is just an addition to make the web interactive. This book focus only on JS without HTML and CSS so that you can learn the language outside of the browser environment. It's essential when you build a full-stack web app, Internet of Things, or Machine Learning program with JavaScript.
