🌐 1995: The Birth of JavaScript• @ricmac
｢ the plan in 1995 was that JavaScript would be the scripting language to create client-side programs that ran inside the #Netscape browser, while big brother Java would be used for developing more complex web components. Eich saw #JavaScript at the time as “a ‘glue language’ for the Web designers and part time programmers who were building Web content from components such as images, plugins, and #Java applets.” ｣
