History of Javascript:
- The early to mid - 1990s was an important time for the internet
- The internet was evolving at that time and big companies were joining the internet like Netscape navigator, Microsoft etc
- In september 1995, a Netscape programmer named Brandan Eich developed a new scripting language in just 10 days.
- It was build to improve some features and there was a competition between Netscape and Microsoft
- Firstly the name of this language was Mocha then changed to LiveScript and later changed to JavaScript
- JavaScript code is executed by JavaScript Engine, every browser has this engine to run the javascript such as chrome has V8 engine and even if your code is in nodejs even then Javascript engine will run it.
