BUSINESS APPLICATIONS

Language: JavaScript

Language Description:

JavaScript is a high-level programming language that is used in a wide range of applications. After
its first release in 1995 as a scripting language for Netscape Navigator, the language quickly
gained popularity. It wasn't until 2008 that a contemporary version of the language was created.
JavaScript grew into a completely self-contained language over time. It is sometimes mistaken
with the Java programming language. Even though these two languages have identical names,
their applications are vastly different.

Analysis:

Based on my interpretation, JavaScript is widely used for business applications. Many businesses and
developers recommend it because of its simplicity. It is also cost effective in terms of developing a
custom website because it is an open-source language in addition to its readability and writability.
