## What it is
An open-source tutorial guide covering ES6/ES2015 JavaScript features such as block scoping, arrow functions, destructuring, generators, and promises. It is written as a multi-chapter markdown guide and has been expanded into a published book.

- learn arrow functions and template literals
- study JavaScript promises and generators
- teach modern JavaScript to beginners

## When to choose
- you want a free, concise introduction to ES6 syntax
- you are teaching or onboarding developers to modern JavaScript

## When to avoid
- you need up-to-date coverage of post-ES2015 JavaScript features
- you need an executable tool or library rather than a guide

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: documentation
- domain: programming-languages, tutorials, web-development
- platform: browser
