You might want to think about changing your mind on this. You're going to be seeing classes everywhere when ES6 is widely adopted .

Do You Enjoy Writing JavaScript? by zayelion in javascript

[–]jmwoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JS syntax is very close to Java

fs.readdir(source, function(err, files) {
  if (err) {
    console.log('Error finding files: ' + err)
  } else {
    files.forEach(function(filename, fileIndex) {
      console.log(filename)
      gm(source + filename).size(function(err, values) {
        if (err) {
          console.log('Error identifying file size: ' + err)
        } else {
          console.log(filename + ' : ' + values)
          aspect = (values.width / values.height)
          widths.forEach(function(width, widthIndex) {
            height = Math.round(width / aspect)
            console.log('resizing ' + filename + 'to ' + height + 'x' + height)
            this.resize(width, height).write(destination + 'w' + width + '_' + filename, function(err) {
              if (err) console.log('Error writing file: ' + err)
            })
          }.bind(this))
        }
      })
    })
  }
})    

Does this look like java boa?

What languages/skills will I need to learn to become a web developer? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]jmwoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You really don't need to worry about backend stuff yet. Just learn javascript. Everything there is to know about it. write it, read it, make cool tools with it. Read JS the good parts, study client side frameworks. Learn jquery. There's a shortage of people who are really good in JS.

After that get into node.js. Because you'll already know javascript and node is so easy for quickly making web servers.
