Learn JavaScript And EcmaScript

Learning JavaScript and ECMAScript is a fundamental step for anyone interested in web development or even broader programming roles.

ECMAScript is the standard that informs the creation of more specific scripting languages, for example, Microsoft's later work on the now-defunct JScript, Adobe's ActionScript, and JavaScript itself.

JavaScript

• JavaScript is the scripting language for Web pages because JavaScript runs "live" in the browser. And many non-browser environments also use.
• JavaScript is a lightweight interpreter language, and not compiled languages. A JavaScript is sent to the browser alongside assets like markup, images, and stylesheets, then the browser interprets JavaScript to the same way when JavaScript was written: as a human-readable sequence of Unicode characters, parsed from left to right and top to bottom.
• JavaScript adds interactivity to a webpage and creates a dynamic content of web applications (for example: HTML, CSS) and also used in non-browser environments.
• JavaScript as a high level programming language, JavaScript applications are made up of statements and expressions.
• JavaScript handle events: Respond to user actions like clicks, form submissions, and key presses.
• JavaScript perform calculations and data manipulation: Process information and make decisions within a web application.
• JavaScript as a language to develop server-side applications: Beyond the browser, JavaScript can be used to build back-end services and APIs.
• JavaScript communicate with servers: Send and receive data from a server.
