JavaScript was created by Brendan Eich in 1995. He developed it while working at Netscape Communications Corporation. The language was initially called Mocha, then renamed to LiveScript and finally to JavaScript. The first version of JavaScript was included in Netscape Navigator 2.0 which was released in December 1995.
JavaScript statements are composed of Values, Operators, Expressions, Keywords, and Comments.
JavaScript is one of the 3 languages all web developers must learn
- HTML to define the content of web pages
- CSS to specify the layout of web pages
- JavaScript to program the behavior of web pages
JavaScript is a versatile programming language extensively used in web development. It empowers interactive features like form validation, dynamic content updates, and user interface enhancements. Furthermore, it's employed in server-side scripting, mobile app development, game development, and even desktop application development through frameworks like Electron.
