Traditionally, JavaScript has been a single-threaded language. Nearly all online forum posts, books, online documentation, and libraries refer to the language as single threaded. Thanks to recent advancements in the language--such as the Atomics and SharedArrayBuffers objects and Web Workers in the browser--JavaScript is now a multi-threaded language. These features will go down as being the biggest paradigm shift for the world's most popular programming language.Multithreaded JavaScript explores the various features that JavaScript runtimes have at their disposal for implementing multithreaded programming, providing both practical real-world examples, as well as reference material.Learn what multithreaded programming is and how you can benefit from itUnderstand the differences between a web worker, a service worker, and a worker threadKnow when and when not to use threads in an applicationOrchestrate communication between threads by leveraging the Atomics objectBuild high-performance applications using the knowledge you gain from this bookBenchmark performance to learn if you'll benefit from multithreading

The principles of this book, if followed while designing and maintaining an API, will ensure third-party developers grok your API while consequently reducing support tickets and emails. Developers will travel from tech conference to tech conference rejoicing what a pleasure working with your API has been, getting more developers to sign-up along the way.By the time you're done reading this book you'll have a high-level understanding of how to build an HTTP API Ecosystem which third-party developers will love.
