JavaScript language overview
JavaScript is a multi-paradigm, dynamic language with types and operators, standard built-in objects, and
methods. Its syntax is based on the Java and C languages — many structures from those languages apply to
JavaScript as well. JavaScript supports object-oriented programming with object prototypes and classes.
It also supports functional programming since functions are first-class objects that can be easily
created via expressions and passed around like any other object.
Key Features of JavaScript:
1.Interactivity: JavaScript enables interactive web elements, such as sliders, forms, and animations, enhancing user experience.
2.Client-Side Scripting: It is mainly executed on the client side (in the user's browser), which allows for responsive and real-time web applications without the need for frequent server requests.
3.Event-Driven: JavaScript can handle events such as user clicks, keyboard input, or mouse movements, making it ideal for creating interactive websites.
4.Asynchronous Programming: With features like callbacks, promises, and async/await, JavaScript can handle multiple tasks simultaneously, improving performance and user experience.
5.Versatility: JavaScript is not limited to web browsers; it can also be used on the server side through environments like Node.js, and in mobile app development, game development, and more.
