Three Devs and a Maybe

21: Introduction to JavaScript

Listen Later

In this weeks show we introduce the JavaScript programming language, which now seems to be available everywhere.

Initially discussing the prototypal-languages goals, we move on to a brief history lesson - touching on the ECMAScript standard.
We then explain how JavaScript uses the DOM and Ajax to create dynamic, client-side applications.
Finally, we wrap up with the usual ten question quiz.
