20 Best JavaScript Books For Every Web Developer

Best books on JavaScript (JS), jQuery, Node.js, AngularJS and Underscore.js for every every web developer who wishes to debug JavaScript code.

JavaScript is a programming language that every web developer learns as he deals with the issues with the JavaScript code. Very few JavaScript developers learn JavaScript from the books. It is one of the main reasons developers dwindle more in JavaScripts. I did it that way, and I saw it to be the case with many.

When I first saw the JQuery tags, I wasn’t even sure how those tags work. I couldn’t write my own and so always was copying these types of codes.

	jQuery( document ).ready(function() {
	console.log( "ready!" );
	});

If I tell you that JavaScripts can also be object-oriented, most of us will be shocked, but that’s true. So don’t focus too much on learning everything from the web using Google search. You can only search for things you know you should be searching for, but there are things where you should be doing the old school way of learning.

So I like to tell anyone looking to be a web developer to focus on JS as a programming language and spend time learning and mastering it. It is the future, and it is the language that may dictate the Internet when Node.js and Angular.js gain more popularity.

Today I am sharing with you a list of best JavaScript books that every web developer should consider reading. The list includes not only JavaScript (JS) but also jQuery, Node.js, AngularJS, and Underscore.js.
