Intro:
JavaScript is everywhere β frontend, backend (Node.js), and even full-stack interviews.
In 2025, these 10 classic but tricky questions still dominate coding interviews.
πΉ 1. Difference between var, let, and const
Scope, hoisting, and re-declaration rules.
πΉ 2. What is a Closure?
Function + lexical environment.
Interview tip: Write a quick code example.
πΉ 3. Explain == vs ===
Type coercion vs strict equality.
πΉ 4. What are Promises and Async/Await?
Handling asynchronous code.
πΉ 5. Event Loop in JavaScript
Call stack, callback queue, microtasks.
πΉ 6. Difference between null and undefined
A simple but tricky favorite.
πΉ 7. What is Hoisting?
Variables and functions behavior before execution.
πΉ 8. Explain Prototypal Inheritance
Key to understanding OOP in JavaScript.
πΉ 9. What is the difference between map(), forEach(), filter(), and reduce()?
Practical array method comparisons.
πΉ 10. Explain Debouncing and Throttling
Critical for frontend performance optimization.
β Final Thoughts
If you can explain these 10 concepts clearly (with examples), youβll ace JavaScript interview rounds in 2025.

As someone who regularly interviews JS developers, these are topics I would expect an experienced developer to know. Good post.
