Javascript invented by Brendon Eich in 1991
Javascript is not just a client side scripting language and has diversified a lot.
can be used for server side programming(acts as dynamic programming language. eg. Node.js, React- developed by facebook, React NAtive - used for mobile application, Angular JS - MVC fwk by Google) /desktop applications (eg. Electron JS)

What is DOM(Document Object Model)?
For Javascript to understand HTML, we have another representation of HTML which is Document Object Model. Each tag corresponds to an object in DOM.
JS can't understand tags, but it can understand objects and access the attributes of the objects.


Tools Used-
Visual Studio Code Editor
Chrome browser

JS is loosely and dynamically typed language.
Variables are case-sensitive.

Motivating Shy developers

Hi,
We often restrict ourselves from asking the right questions in various meetings, thinking what others would think about our knowledge.But, its actually holding you back from achieving your full potential. Ask questions, be aggressive, don't think of others!!
Cheers!
