(I know that you probably know this: ) It is vital to understand (which is why I do not tire to point it out) that there is not only one such scripting language as ECMAScript implementations differ from one another. For example, you will already find some features of ECMAScript Ed. 6/2015 in Mozilla JavaScript, but not yet in Google V8 JavaScript (the more Canary, the more likely that you find them there, too). If you write your code only based on superficial reading of MDN (neglecting the top or bottom section of articles), and test it only in Firefox or Seamonkey because you are thinking “JavaScript”, it can *break* in Chromium/Chrome even if it is syntactically correct (or *considered* syntactically correct by Firefox’s script engine; there are also syntax extensions in implementations, in *full compliance* with the Specification text). And those are only two implementations and two runtime environments of much more. > you should get accustomed to the developer tools of the browser(s) first, > see <http://devtoolsecrets.com/>.
