You will understand what underscore and lodash are and why you should use them when you're programming Javascript.
Javascript doesn't come alot of core libraries. So you end up writing quite alot of code yourself. Thankfully underscore was invented which provides a tonne of useful functions to help you out.
Underscore is particularly useful for it's operations on collections.
Lodash and Underscore serve the same purpose and are 98% the same as far as I can tell. Lodash is the new hotness, so we'll use that 😄
