Find out more about what's changed in this release by viewing the change history rollup. Andrew also has a nice blog post summarizing the changes in this release.

YUI Open Roundtable

In this week's YUI Open Roundtable, Juan Dopazo from the YUI Team sat down with Andrew to talk about Promises and ES6 Modules in YUI. Juan stepped through what Promises are and how you can use them today. It was a great discussion that I highly recommend checking it out if you're new to Promises.

Towards the end of the video, Juan also talked about how you can write YUI modules in ES6 by leveraging the new YUI.require() method, imports/exports, and transpiling code via the Square ES6 Transpiler.

The World of JavaScript

• If you follow Node.js news, you probably know that Express 4.0 was released this week! So are you going to upgrade to Express 4.0 or use Koa?

• Lauren Orsini has a nice tutorial up on how to leverage the newly open-sourced WinJS API to build a Windows app in 10 easy steps using HTML technologies.

• Most sites on the web use Google Analytics, and David Walsh has a short post up on how you can use GA to track JavaScript errors.

This was an exciting week for the team, with the release of 3.16.0 and a great Open Roundtable discussion! Remember that next Friday is Good Friday, so there will not be a YUI Weekly next week. I'll see you guys back here on April 25th!
