JavaScript ES6 support MUST be implemented.

Hoe kunnen we je helpen?

ES6 standard has been out for YEARS, yet the Khan lessons are still teaching old technology. We don't use VAR any more, we use LET. This is a fundamental change to how people code JS in current year. We haven't used VAR is many many years!

This has been requested a number of times now, but I think it is falling on deaf ears.

I would create the course myself...but I am a total n00b, and am in no position to teach JS.

Khan needs to take a serious look at updating their JS courses. I think this is very important. Can someone please run this up the ladder at Khan? Thanks for listening.

I think they'd need an editor update first.

Actually, I believe that you are able to use ES6 in the HTML environment if you add the type attribute to the script tag. So,
```
<script type>
    // Use ES6 syntax in here
</script>
```
The type attribute defaults to 'application/javascript' (ES6 JavaScript) but can be changed to make the script a GLSL shader.

Additionally, if you want to use let and const, you can add the comment // jshint esnext: true in the PJS environment to enable them. This doesn't add all of ES6 syntax though.

Is this what you were looking for?

Correction, you are able to use limited ES6. Because of KA's "live" update, some features such as top level const. In addition, the PJS environment can't use ES6 at all, to my knowledge. That being said, I believe the main purpose of the request is to request courses.

Ummmmm to be honest, I'm still really new ... So I barely understand any of what you guys are talking about. I just dumped Khan and moved to FreeCodeCamp instead.
