In my exploration of RUclips, looking for JavaScript 'tuts' that bring a fundamental level of understanding and total clarity this language, to a newbie like myself to so that I can code fluently with no doubts. This video series knocks off every last one of those videos that some may say is at the top. You are a true teacher and have done your homework. Thanks to the folks at "Code Smith".
This is such a clear, excellent explanation of functions, execution context and the the call stack. I understand stuff I never understood before. Thank you!
I had never seen something like this before, I wish you had more videos like this on RUclips Will, or if you had a personal channel. Best teaching ever
This kind of video is what I need for going through my own understanding (or misunderstanding) of JS. How does this relate to frameworks like Vue, React and Angular? Do they modify any of these concepts in some way?
Glad it was helpful. All these frameworks use Javascript, so under the hood all these principles still apply. That being said, these frameworks (which are just pre-written code in JavaScript that you can copy in and use to perform typical tasks - so you don't have to write the code yourself) can sometimes appear to overwrite the rules of JavaScript (with concepts like $scope in Angular). Angular hasn't really changing the real JavaScript implementation of 'scope', they're creating their own version on top (built in JavaScript) that behaves the way they want it to
Lexical environment means physical location of code in ur program. Closures uses lexical environment. You can think it as "local" but I am not sure what you are referring here.
Great presentation, but I was barely able to understand and follow along until I set it to .75 speed. I am so glad I am not at an in person lecture because these concepts are so hard to understand and I have to repeat parts of the video multiple times to understand what was being talked about.
Its clear that you love teaching and love programming. It's infectious

Agreed, thank you Codesmith!
The best teachers are the ones who are passionate about the matter which they teach. This is an amazing video
We are happy to hear you enjoyed this one!
Love the excitement of the teacher
Hi there! So glad to hear you enjoyed learning with Will 😄
Great teacher, great lesson. Best Javascript theory lecture I've seen on RUclips.
I had never seen something like this before, I wish you had more videos like this on RUclips Will, or if you had a personal channel. Best teaching ever
You explained it best sir, no one has ever shown me this . perfect ,thank you so much !
By far the best explanation I have found. I love the passion Will has for JavaScript - watching is a pleasure and so engaging! Thank you for sharing!
IKR, you can be an excellent programmer but suck at teaching others, Will has that ability to teach others
This man is saving many coding students
Nice video with a concise explanation of great and complex stuff. Many thanks Will.
Your teaching style is EXCELLENT!!! Thank you
Thank you Mehin!
Love these videos, clear and concise.
Wow, now that's where you want to start. Excellent explanation of the underlying logic. Thank you, sir
This is amazing. Thank you for such a concise and informative lecture.
I wish I had this when I was learning functions in my C++ class. This is so helpful when it comes to functions!
Thanks Easton - let us know what other topics you'd like
Brilliant teaching method building a sound fundamental knowledge base
Thank you Darian
what a legend, I love you sir
Wonderful.
Cheers Konstantin!
Thank you very much!! Well explained! you answered all the question that I had in my mind!
Great job. Thanks a bunch for this.
All I can say is Thank you!!!

It's an awesome presentation. One note to add is that the local memory Will is talking about is the same thing as a (local) Lexical environment.
Lexical environment means physical location of code in ur program. Closures uses lexical environment. You can think it as "local" but I am not sure what you are referring here.
Great explanation, thank you!
perfectly explained
wow! it felt like he was jordan peterson for javascript for the articulate way he presented the topic.
Thank you!
you are great !!!! awesome
Is the num- 3 here not getting used then?
yup. i think these are just lines of code so that the instructor can go through them to explain what is actually happening behind the scenes
💛💚

Agreed - definitely useful to be able to slow things down to fully grasp the content methodically
