What Is JavaScript?
Welcome to the series! 🎉 In this first episode, we kick things off by answering the big question: What even is JavaScript? 🧠You’ve probably already seen it in action today—on a shopping cart, a weather widget, maybe even a chat box. JavaScript is the secret sauce behind interactive websites, and in this video, we’ll explore:
🌐 A quick peek into its wild history
🖥️ Where it runs (spoiler: not just in your browser!)
⚙️ What it actually does for web pages and applications
📚 What to expect from the rest of this hands-on, no-fluff series
We’ll even check out a tiny bit of code that creates a button ✨ and responds to a click with an alert—just to show how easy it is to bring pages to life.
Let’s set the foundation for your JavaScript journey. 💪
