Hi all, my name is Philip Quijada, I am a programmer and I have been working in this field for almost 10 years, I develop websites, applications, also I teach in a programming school.
When I started my career, I had a choice: which language is better for programming. At that time, everything was pointing to JavaScript.
JavaScript is a programming language that adds interactivity to your website (for example: games, responsiveness when you click on buttons or enter data into forms, dynamic styles, animation).
JavaScript (JS) is a high-level programming language that supports imperative, functional, event-driven, and other approaches. Refers to languages with dynamic typing, belongs to the group of interpreted languages.
The main features of JS include:
- Dynamic typing – the data type is determined the moment a value is assigned to a constant or variable.
- Interpretable language – the application code is interpreted when called, no pre-compilation is required.
- Functions as objects of the first class, that is, functions in JavaScript can be returned from functions, transferred as parameters to other functions, assigned to variables.
- Support for prototype and object-oriented approach.
- Versatility – all popular browsers support JavaScript.
