JS often abbreviated as JS, is a high-level, dynamic, weakly typed, object-based, multi-paradigm,

and interpreted client-side programming language. Alongside HTML and CSS, JavaScript is one of
the three core technologies of World Wide Web content production. It is used to make webpages
interactive and provide online programs, including video games. The majority of websites employ it,
and all modern web browsers support it without the need for plug-ins by means of a built-
in JavaScript engine. Each of the many JavaScript engines represent a different implementation of
JavaScript, all based on the ECMAScript specification, with some engines not supporting the spec
fully, and with many engines supporting additional features beyond ECMA.
As a multi-paradigm language, JavaScript supports event-driven, functional,
and imperative (including object-oriented and prototype-based) programming styles. It has an API for
working with text, arrays, dates, regular expressions, and basic manipulation of the DOM, but does
not include any I/O, such as networking, storage, or graphics facilities, relying for these upon the
host environment in which it is embedded.
Initially only implemented client-side in web browsers, JavaScript engines are now embedded in
many other types of host software, including server-side in web servers and databases, and in non-
web programs such as word processors and PDF software, and in runtime environments that make
JavaScript available for writing mobile and desktop applications, including desktop widgets.
Although there are strong outward similarities between JavaScript and Java, including language
name, syntax, and respective standard libraries, the two languages are distinct and differ greatly in
design; JavaScript was influenced by programming languages such as Self and Scheme.[7]
