The Basics
If programmers can be said to have a common language, it would reside in JavaScript. This commonly used ECMAScript derivative is used for browser-side (and more recently, server side) web application programming and dynamic content presentation. The MDN reference guide is an excellent resource for helpful information on JavaScript.
Expansion Pack
Early JavaScript developers are often tasks with ensuring that browsers perform small functions that provide a more dynamic user experience on individual web pages. Experienced developers often work to create and/or apply one of the many popular JS frameworks in delivering value for business applications.
