OP here: Just published this book on Amazon, and it's also free to read online[1][2]. It covers ES6 in a comprehensive and practical manner, focusing on how features can be used to write better code. The book also goes beyond ES6 to explain things like async/await, async iterators and generators, Intl.Segmenter, proposals to improve regexp's unicode support, and so on.

Author here. Excellent question! That's because Twitter doesn't offer fine-grained control over what permissions you request. The website that asks for that stuff is open-source[1], though, so you can take a look at what it does (just send out a single tweet). If you still feel uneasy about granting me access to tweet through your account, that's perfectly understandable, and I have two options that may work for you: - Revoke access right after you authorize the app. The tweet will still be sent out, and you will still keep your access to the HTML chapters. Since I don't get access to your DMs, there's no harm nor potential harm done. - Just read the book on GitHub[2]. It isn't as pretty as the HTML version, but it works well enough and alleviates your security concerns. [1]: http://github.com/ponyfoo/ponyfoo [2]: https://github.com/mjava
