JavaScript Tutorial

About JavaScript Tutorial

Welcome to your first day of learning JavaScript. This tutorial covers JavaScript from complete beginner to advanced level.

It is full of Examples, References, Syntax’s, Tips, Notes, Warning, Activities, etc.

What do you think JavaScript is?

JavaScript is an object-oriented programming (OOPs) but definitely not class based OOPs like Java, C++, etc.

OOPs is based on the concept of “Object” which contains data and function. Further, Function contains statement and instructions for the compiler to compile and give the output. 

JavaScript is a scripting language that is easy to implement as it can be easily integrated within HTML.

Warning:
You  must have basic knowledge of HTML before you learn JavaScript.

Why use JavaScript?

Learning JavaScript is important for students who want to make a career in Website Development.

We are here to help you learn JavaScript in real-world with real-time applications.

Advantage of using JavaScript

  1. Browser Compatibility – . All the major browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, Bing, etc supports JavaScript.
  2. Flexibility– JS is flexible to use as the coding is flexible. For example, the variables don’t need to be declared with data types. You use a single keyword to declare every kind of data type, i.e. “Var”.
  3. User-friendly– It is easy to code with JS.
  4. It is one of the most famous Scripting Languages and thus, programmers prefer JS as their choice. Learning JS helps with back end and front-end development. Node JS, jQuery, etc. are the frameworks where JS is used. 

Prerequisite - Requirements
