What is a .JS file?
JavaScript (JS) is the programming language of the web.
- Did you know
- JavaScript was famously written by Brendan Eich at Netscape in just ten days in 1995.
- JavaScript was first codenamed “Mocha”, then briefly “LiveScript”, before its final name was announced with Sun Microsystems.
- The name was largely marketing: it rode on Java’s popularity even though the two languages are quite different.
- Standardised under the neutral name ECMAScript, JavaScript gets a fresh edition almost every year.
- Beneath its Java-like looks it borrowed ideas from the Scheme and Self languages.
