About
JavaScript is an interpreted programming language and a core technology of the web, alongside HTML and
CSS, used to add interactivity and logic to websites and web applications.
It runs in all major browsers, supports event-driven and asynchronous programming, includes a standardized specification called ECMAScript, and is widely used for client-side scripting, server-side development, and cross-platform applications.
TypeScript is a high-level programming language developed by Microsoft that adds optional static typing and advanced language features to JavaScript for building complex applications.
It provides compile-time type checking, type inference, interfaces, generics, enums, and namespaces, supports definition files for thousands of JavaScript libraries, and compiles to standard JavaScript compatible with any runtime environment.
