Web Development
JavaScript is a high-level, dynamically typed programming language primarily used to create interactive behavior on web pages, running natively in every web browser. Beyond the browser, it's also used for server-side development via Node.js, mobile app development, and desktop applications, making it one of the most widely used programming languages in the world. It's a core technology of the web alongside HTML and CSS, and has a vast ecosystem of frameworks like React, Vue, and Angular.
