Introduction to JavaScript

JavaScript is a powerful and versatile programming language primarily used for web development. It allows developers to create dynamic and interactive web pages by manipulating HTML, CSS, and handling user interactions. JavaScript runs in web browsers and is widely used in frontend (client-side) as well as backend (server-side) development with environments like Node.js.

JavaScript supports object-oriented, functional, and event-driven programming paradigms. It is essential for modern web development and is widely used alongside HTML and CSS to build feature-rich applications.
