Comment on Closure: The world's most misunderstood JavaScript libraryparent

Comments

I really suggest you buy the book mentioned in the article. The author discuses extensively (and, to me at least, convincingly) the design decisions behind Google Closure.

Agreed.

I've been using the compiler for months, slowly adding type annotations as I went, but not really "getting" a few key concepts.

Investing in the book was worthwhile, especially since it's the only source for documentation for certain types of compiler optimizations or the module functionality.
