What’s new in ECMAScript.next II

JavaScript will celebrate it’s 19th birthday in 2014. For a language that has been around for such a while it has seen very few, if any changes to the language itself. Well all that is about to change with ECMAScript.next (or ECMAScript 6). ECMAScript 6 modernizes JavaScript syntax, while bringing in features such as modules for better namespacing, class as a first class construct, and a variety of additional operators thus ensuring that JavaScript is ready for the next era of large scale modern web applications.

In this session we will take a look at some of the features that ECMAScript 6 brings to the table and see what kind of browser support is available for it.
