In this session we'll talk about your options to implement inheritance with the squirmy, naughty, and very powerful language known as JavaScript. JavaScript has moved far beyond tricks like manipulating an HTML DOM and is being used to build powerful client-side (and server-side) libraries. As these libraries become more complex, inheritance can play a major role in how these libraries are implemented, consumed, and customized. With JavaScript's dynamic nature there is more than one approach you can take to achieve inheritance. Some of these approaches have performance implications, while others are more a matter of taste and style. In this session we'll discuss these approaches and which ones are best for different scenarios.
