(7A) Which coding language adds functionality to a web page??

Lamine Karamoko - March 2, 2023 1 Comment

I think that so far in this amazing course, everyone would know the answer to this question. Java script is used as the functionality of a web page, while HTML is used as creating the structure of a web, and CSS is used for adding design elements to the web page. The thing that makes everything interactive is Java script. This programming language allows web developers to create features that could be interacted with on a web page. With this, you could get animations, menus, pop ups, and etc. It helps to make web pages more interactive if users can navigate through the website itself. This is what makes java script so important for developers. Of course there are other programming languages for this, but the most commonly used one would happen to be Java script, or Python if you would like. But, it seems like Java Script is much easier to learn than python in my opinion.

    Hi Lamine,
    I found your post to hold a lot of useful information! We have definitely learned that HTML lays the foundation for websites, CSS makes the website look good, and Javascript is what makes it interactive and functional! Without JS, users would not find websites to be very useful, because there would be no interactivity. Javascript is prompted when users click, drag, type, etc. on websites I am very glad we learned the basics of JS in this class. Now I have background knowledge of how important Javascript is when creating websites. This information will be really useful if I ever need to create a website in the future, especially if I open my own business one day. Overall, I completely agree that Javascript is what gives web pages functionality!
