Memory leaks are one of the most common yet overlooked issues in JavaScript applications. Left unchecked, they can cause apps to slow down, crash, or consume unnecessary system resources.

In this session, we’ll explore how memory management works in JavaScript, the root causes of memory leaks, and how to identify and fix them. You’ll learn common leak patterns such as event listener mismanagement, closures that retain references, improper use of timers, and unintentional global variables.
