History of Java

JavaScript was created in 1995 by Brendan Eich for use in Netscape 2 and was standardized as ECMA-262 in 1997. While initially known as LiveScript, it was renamed JavaScript to associate it with the popular Java programming language. JavaScript gained popularity as more browsers added support for it, though early versions had performance and security issues. The creation of Google Chrome's fast JavaScript engine in 2008 and Node.js' ability to run JavaScript outside browsers helped propel JavaScript to its current widespread use for both client-side and server-side applications.

HISTORY OF JAVA SCRIPT
JavaScript was concocted by Brendan Eich in 1995.

It was created for Netscape 2, and turned into the ECMA-262 norm in 1997.

After Netscape gave JavaScript over to ECMA, the Mozilla establishment kept on creating
JavaScript for the Firefox program. Mozilla's most recent rendition was 1.8.5. (Indistinguishable
from ES5).

Web Explorer (IE4) was the main program to help ECMA-262 Edition 1 (ES1).

At first known as LiveScript, Netscape changed the name to JavaScript so they could situate it
as an ally for the Java language, a result of their accomplice, Sun Microsystems. Aside from
some shallow syntactic likenesses, however, JavaScript is not the slightest bit identified with the
Java programming language.

After its delivery, an ever increasing number of programs began adding JavaScript support. In
any case, for a lot of its set of experiences JavaScript was not viewed as a genuine programming
language. Its most punctual deliveries experienced eminent execution and security issues, yet
designers had no other options. Assuming they needed to run programs in the program, they
needed to utilize JavaScript.

In 2008, the production of Google's open-source Chrome V8, an elite JavaScript motor, given a
urgent defining moment to JavaScript. The resulting expansion of quick JavaScript motors made
it feasible for engineers to construct refined program based applications with execution that
rivaled work area and portable applications.

Before long, Ryan Dahl delivered an open-source, cross-stage climate called Node.js. It gave a
way of running JavaScript code from outside a program. It liberated JavaScript from the
program's limits and driven straightforwardly to JavaScript's present prominence. Today, you can
utilize JavaScript to compose a wide range of uses, including program, server, portable and work
area applications. Most major web-based organizations today, including Facebook, Twitter,
Netflix, and Google, all utilization JavaScript in their items.
