With the frontend JavaScript is used for creating interactivity for users who are the clients that use the websites and online applications.

As for the backend you can use Node which is basically just Javascript for developing servers which can do requests and connect to databases that you can use for persisting data. You can also create your own REST API's too.

In frontend: you want interactivity, you migh like to make dopdowns, sidebars, AJAX you need javascript for that.

In backend: you can use node libraries to create a server which can respond to web requests
