javascript
Javascript is a high-level programming language programming language primarily used in web-environments. Javascript emerged as a programming language to be able to execute code on your websites.
You can use javascript on your website, but also as a server with Node.js. Javascript has a lot of libraries that you can install via NPM.
Microsoft decided to make a different version of javascript which is called Typescript. Typescript adds type-safe programming to javascript because javascript natively does not have any types. Typescript compiles into javascript before runtime.
