JavaScript is a highly-regarded programming language. It's considered one of the top three that programmers need to learn to control the behavior of a web application. JavaScript is also prized for being able to change HTML content, attributes and styles, as well as display or hide HTML elements. These aspects are key to creating a useful and unique web experience. JavaScript can execute code on demand and through a user-specified action. Its scripts can be stored in external files if desired, which allows for HTML and code to be separated for security, making JavaScript and HTML easier to read. It can increase the page loading function using cached files. This language displays output data in numerous ways, allowing for increased programmer flexibility. Its syntax provides two types of values, fixed (known as literals) and variable. Other reasons why JavaScript is so popular with programmers and companies is that it's supported by all browsers, can code for both the client- and user-side and is open-source. It can also run on different types of devices, including desktop, Android and iOS.

Professionals who are adept with JavaScript can find excellent programming careers in basically any industry, even with a company that uses the simplest technology to operate, as most do. Some of the industries in need of skilled JavaScript programmers include advertising, information tech, eCommerce, analytics and education. Employers look for specific job roles in this field like full-stack developers, software engineers, UI developers and solutions engineers. JavaScript specialists can typically find a career in most cities across the country, with the highest demand being in New York, the San Francisco Bay Area and Boston.
