Learn Elixir, Lodash and Reactfire

JavaScript® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

`_.omitBy` and its sibling `_.pickBy` are popular utilities which apply filter-like functionality to objects. Both of them accept a function to determine if a given entry in the object should be included in the output object. This lesson will demonstrate an approach to build both of these utilities from a single function using the combo of `Object.entries` and `Object.fromEntries`.

`Object.entries` converts an object into an array of key, value pairs. We couple that with the native Array filter method, to create a generate `filter()` method that works on objects. Once we've filtered our object we use `Object.fromEntries` to convert the array back into an object. This works great for both `omitBy` and `pickBy`.

**Note**

`Object.fromEntries` is part of the ES2019 spec and may need [a polyfill](https://github.com/ungap/from-entries) to work depending on your environment.

Build lodash.omitBy and lodash.pickBy with Object.fromEntries

`_.pick` and its sibling `_.omit` are popular utilities which apply filter-like functionality to objects. This lesson will demonstrate two different techniques for building the functionality found in [_.pick](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#pick).

1. Using `for...of` to loop through the `keys` array
2. Using `for..in` to loop through the target object

This lesson will also cover how to emulate `_.pick`'s support for either an array or multiple arguments for the picked keys using [Rest params](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/rest_parameters) and [Array.prototype.flat()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/flat).


Build lodash.pick from Scratch

This lessons builds on [Build lodash.debounce from scratch](https://egghead.io/lessons/javascript-build-lodash-debounce-from-scratch) to add support for one of its more interesting options: `maxWait`. The `maxWait` option ensures that a debounced method is deferred no longer than the time specified. This is helpful if we need to respond to a long running interaction while it's still in progress. 

In this lesson we'll demonstrate how continuously typing into a debounced input field prevents us from logging any input at all. We'll add a `maxWait` option as a third parameter to our `debounce` function and set it up using an additional `setTimeout` call.

Essentially `maxWait` works by adding a second timer which will fire in the case that the normal debounce timer does not get called. We avoid unnecessarily triggering our debounced function by calling `clearTimeout` in both of our `setTimeout` functions to clear out whichever timer didn't just fire. We also need to set the `maxTimer` variable to `null` to tell our function it's safe to start a new maxWait timer each time either timer fires.


**Notes**

- `setTimeout` returns a timer ID not the actual timer object itself, which is why we have to `null` it out *after* we already call `clearTimeout`
- If you don't `null` out `maxTimer` in your original timer, the maxWait timer will stop triggering after the debounce timer is called the first time. I learned that one the hard way when I first recorded this video.


Extending debounce with a maxWait Option

This lesson will demonstrate how to replace common uses of [lodash.get](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#get) with [optional chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining) syntax.

`_.get` is by far my favorite lodash method. I've been on so many projects where the results of a network call was a large and often unreliable blob of data. After countless attempts to reign in errors caused by trying to access non-existent properties I've come to rely on _.get as a simple & safe way to retrieve data from those objects. However, as is always the case in web development, times are changing and the tools we need to safely access properties of complex objects are now being built into the platform. [Optional chaining syntax](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining) gives us the power of _.get without several of the tradeoffs. It doesn't require an extra library to use, it plays nicely with TypeScript and it can be used when calling methods as well as when accessing properties.

This lesson covers 4 common use cases of `lodash.get` and converts them to using optional chaining syntax.

1. Nested Object and Array Access
2. String and Variable Property Access
3. Calling a Method on an Object that may Not Exist
4. Providing a Default Value when a Property does Not Exist

Replace lodash.get with Optional Chaining Syntax

This lesson will demonstrate how to recreate a simplified version of the popular [lodash.debounce](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#debounce) method from scratch. **I literally failed a job interview by messing up this question, so watch carefully!**

Debounce is an incredible tool most commonly used to prevent responding too quickly to user input that is in motion. For example, preventing excessive AJAX requests made while a user types into an autocomplete field or quickly responding to window resize events without bringing your browser to a halt.

Our approach is to build the simplest `debounce` method possible using a [setTimeout](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setTimeout) which gets cleared each time the supplied function is called thereby delaying the execution of our function until input stops for a given amount of time.

The [Lodash implementation of debounce](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#debounce) includes support for a number of options including `leading`, `maxWait`, and `trailing` which we have not covered in this video, but may in future lessons.

### Variations

Modern implementations of `setTimeout` include support for additional arguments which get passed into your function so an alternative to the approach used in this lesson would be `setTimeout(fn, wait, ...args)`

### ES5 Compatbility

If you are in an es5 environment skip the rest/spread syntax and use:

```
var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments)
```

And later, in your setTimeout function:

```
fn.apply(null, args)
```

Build lodash.debounce from Scratch

[Lodash](https://lodash.com/docs/) is a collection of utilities that have become a staple of modern web development. This collection will show you how to re-create its most common methods using simple JavaScript techniques available in any modern web browser. In addition to re-building tools like `_.merge`, `_.get` and `_.debounce` from scratch you will also learn how to replace them completely in some cases with modern syntax such as [optional chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining), [nullish coalescing](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Nullish_coalescing_operator) and [Object.fromEntries](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/fromEntries).

This collection should interest the following groups:
- Those who want to better understand common JavaScript patterns
- Engineers who want to reduce their dependence on Lodash (for performance or other reasons)
- Candidates preparing for a technical job interview (where it is common to be asked how to implement some of these methods).

Recreating Popular JavaScript Utility Methods from Lodash

This lesson will demonstrate how to recreate a simplified version of the popular [lodash.merge](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#merge) method from scratch.

First we'll create a test file with two objects that we want to merge together and demonstrate the output after running them through lodash.merge , then we'll go about creating our own version of the function.

Our initial version will support only one `source` object to merge in, and will support only the subset of JavaScript syntax supported by the JSON spec, including the following types:
- `boolean`, `number`, `string`
- object literal
- array

After getting basic types to merge we'll show off two methods for merging arrays, either using [concat](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/concat) or recursively going through the children and merging them.

Finally we'll build our own `isObject` function to check for object literals and recursively apply our `mergeJSON` function to any object literals in our `source` object.

And last we'll add support for multiple `source` objects to be merged in using a `for...of` loop.


**Note**

The `mergeJSON` method we create approximates the `lodash.merge` functionality but does not seek to replace it. It may be useful for some use cases, but primarily it's meant to be a tool for understanding how to merge objects with recursion.

Build lodash.merge from Scratch

This lesson will demonstrate how to recreate a simplified version of the popular [lodash.get](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#get) method from scratch.

Our function takes 3 parameters `obj`, `string` and `defaultValue`.

The primary technique we discuss is splitting the `string` on any kind of separator we might see such as `[`, `]`, or `.` and then filtering out any empty strings we get in our array. Once we have that array of path parts, we can loop through each part with a `for..of` loop then keep reaching into object until we either a) run out of parts to try 🎉 or b) hit a dead end (`null` or `undefined`). The entire function is very simple to write, but can be incredibly powerful when you're safely trying to access large and complex blobs of data that might be coming from a database or server response.

Elixir is a dynamic, functional language designed for building scalable and maintainable applications.

Elixir leverages the Erlang VM, known for running low-latency, distributed and fault-tolerant systems, while also being successfully used in web development and the embedded software domain.

Some common uses for pattern matching in Elixir include checking conditions and passing parameters into functions. It's useful for pulling out only specific variables from collections of data.

Additional resources:
- [Elixir docs on pattern matching](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/pattern-matching.html)

Pattern match in conditions and function parameters in Elixir

Elixir uses `=` as an operator, but rather than assigning values to variables with it, it *matches* values on the right hand side of the `=` with the left side. This can be used in simple values, more complex data structures, and powerful condition checking.

Put into simpler terms, pattern matching is Elixir's way of assigning variables.

Pattern match values in Elixir

These videos include the introductory steps to writing your first Elixir function and beginning to understand some key concepts in Elixir that make it unique. 

Some of those concepts include:
- the Mix build tool
- project structure
- collections of functions written in modules
- function *arity*
- pattern matching and common uses for it
- the pipe operator

Getting Started with Elixir

The syntax to pass arguments into functions is akin to many other languages. Elixir functions are uniquely recognized when running based off of the number of arguments passed in (a term called *arity*). This means you can define functions with the same name, so long as a different number of arguments is passed in.

Arity is a key concept to be aware of when reading documentation and writing your own code.

Additional resources:
- [Information about arity](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/modules-and-functions.html#function-capturing)
- [Default arguments in functions](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/modules-and-functions.html#default-arguments)

Pass arguments into Elixir functions and understand arity

Elixir code is organized into groups of functions called modules. You can create your own modules and built on top of predefined modules that are a part of Elixir by default.

Additional resources: 
- [Getting started with Modules and function from Elixir docs](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/modules-and-functions.html)

Write a New Function Inside of an Elixir Module

Bootstrap a new Elixir project using Mix (a build tool included when you install Elixir), with its built in project generation.

Additional resources:

Generate a new Elixir project using Mix

The pipe operator is an easy to use and powerful feature of Elixir. It takes the output from the expression on the left, and automatically passes it as the first argument to the function on the right. This is especially useful when chaining together multiple function calls or data transformations. Using the pipe operator results in code that's easier to read, write and refactor.

lodash

Imagine if looking at your business logic read as simple as a story from a children's book. That's exactly what we'll cover by learning how to compose small pieces of business logic and also set them up for further composition in the future.

We're showing a list of fictional tweets in a trivial React component created with create-react-app, however the example is not React specific and can be applied to any framework/environment.

Our example will refactor out business logic from a non-composable function to small composable pieces. To accomplish this we'll be using flow, filter and map from lodash/fp, which is included in the regular lodash npm package.

This approach works well in any environment where you're not relying on object references to your original data, as our functional approach creates new collection objects instead of mutating them.

Refactor Business Logic to Composable Functions with Lodash

Learn how to use Object.assign to combine multiple objects together. This pattern is helpful when writing libraries that have a set of default options where you want to allow a user to override specific options. You'll also learn how to use a third party library to recursively merge nested objects together.

Combine Objects with Object.assign and Lodash merge

Property access in Javascript can be problematic - especially when dealing with nested Objects and Arrays. Doing it manually and in a safe manner requires tons of boilerplate inside conditionals and results in a defensive style of coding. In this lesson we look at why this is a problem & how to overcome it using the `get` method from the popular utility library `Lodash`

Safer property access with Lodash's 'get' method

Lodash's "sortBy" method helps you sort data in your collections and "sortedIndex" helps you find where to place new data. In this video, John walks you through how to use each of these methods and how they can work together.

Lodash - sortBy and sortedIndex

This lesson shows how to refactor your old loops into using a simpler and more powerful lodash-style. We will start by looking at how many people traditionally write JavaScript `for` loops and then talk about the alternate style and benefits that Lodash offers.

Lodash: Refactoring Simple For Loops

AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

Logic often gets added to our loops. We need to iterate over a collection, and get the sum of values, for instance. This approach can lead to complicated methods, that are hard to test. Using Lodash (Underscore), we are going to extract logic in a large loop body into well named methods. The result will be cleaner and easier to understand.

Refactoring: Replace Loop with Collection Closure using Lodash

While much focus in AI has been on optimizing input and generating concise outputs, a new model in Google's AI Studio dramatically expands output possibilities with a capacity of 65,000 tokens. This represents a significant shift, opening doors to new application scenarios, especially for developers and creators. This lesson explores a practical and immediately useful scenario: leveraging this large output capability within Google's AI Studio to generate extensive sample datasets for your projects. Whether you are developing a new application, building a resource, or require robust datasets for testing and validation, this model offers a powerful solution. We'll demonstrate how to move beyond the constraints of short responses and utilize the full potential of large output models to generate the data volume and variety you need, enhancing your development workflow through Google's AI Studio.

You know when you're deep in the code trenches and need someone to challenge your assumptions? That's exactly what this is about.

Instead of waiting for someone to poke holes in your master plan, you can paste that strategy straight into AI Studio and let it pressure test your ideas. We're talking about using this tool to validate everything from your feature proposals to your ambitious refactoring strategies.

The real magic happens when you hit that microphone button. Now you're in a real-time verbal sparring match. It's like rubber duck debugging but the duck actually pushes back and makes you defend every architectural decision you've made.

Here's the workflow:
1. Drop your master plan into the system instructions
2. Tell the AI to challenge every assumption
3. Hit that mic and defend your choices like you mean it
4. Watch your plan either emerge stronger or get rightfully dismantled

This approach is perfect when you're:
- Stuck in your own head with a complex problem
- Need to validate if your approach holds water
- Want to catch edge cases before they catch you
- Looking for opportunities you might have missed because you're too close to the code

It's like having a senior dev on call 24/7, ready to challenge your ideas and push you to think deeper about your solutions.

Now go forth and get your ideas challenged. Your projects will thank you for it.
