JavaScript

is a widely used high-level programming language primarily used for creating dynamic and interactive websites. It is a versatile language that allows developers to add functionality to web pages, handle user interactions, and manipulate content on the client-side (in the user's web browser). Additionally, with the introduction of Node.js, JavaScript can also be used on the server-side for building scalable web applications. Key features of JavaScript include: 1.

Client-Side Scripting:

JavaScript is mainly known for its ability to run in web browsers, enabling developers to create interactive and dynamic web pages. It can modify the HTML and CSS of a page on-the-fly, allowing for real-time updates and a more engaging user experience. 2.

Event Handling:

JavaScript enables developers to respond to various events such as button clicks, mouse movements, keyboard input, and form submissions. These event handlers make web pages more interactive and responsive. 3.

DOM Manipulation:

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a representation of the web page's structure, and JavaScript provides powerful methods to interact with it. Developers can access, modify, and create HTML elements and CSS styles dynamically using JavaScript. 4.

Asynchronous Programming:

JavaScript supports asynchronous programming using techniques like callbacks, Promises, and async/await, allowing developers to handle time-consuming tasks without blocking the main execution thread. 5.

Cross-platform Compatibility:

JavaScript is supported by all major web browsers, making it a platform-independent language. This means that JavaScript code written for a web page will run on various browsers across different operating systems. 6.

Libraries and Frameworks:

There are numerous libraries and frameworks built on top of JavaScript, such as React, Angular, and Vue.js, which provide additional tools and abstractions for building complex web applications. 7.

Server-Side Development:

With Node.js, JavaScript can be used on the server-side, allowing developers to build server applications using the same language and ecosystem as the client-side. 8.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation):

JavaScript uses JSON for data interchange, making it easy to communicate and exchange data between the client and server. JavaScript is an essential component of web development, and its versatility, ease of use, and wide adoption make it a popular choice for both beginners and experienced developers. It continues to evolve with new features and specifications, making it a powerful language for building modern web applications.

Uplatz

provides this comprehensive JavaScript course with end-to-end demonstration of concepts starting from the most fundamental to the most advanced features of JavaScript. This course also includes the a full session (with free downloadable booklet) on the most important JavaScript interview questions and answers. Additionally, this JavaScript training provides you a comprehensive session on logical reasoning problems & solutions in JavaScript, again with a freely downloadable booklet of the session. This JavaScript training will empower you with the skills to design client-side, platform-independent solutions that greatly increase the value of your Web site by providing interactivity and interest. You will learn how to use JavaScript to communicate with users, modify the Document Object Model (DOM), control program flow, validate forms, animate images, create cookies, change HTML on the fly, and communicate with databases. By the end of this JavaScript course, you will be able to understand the core concepts and programming constructs on JavaScript and be able to use JavaScript to build complex web applications.
