Frequently Asked Question

JavaScript is a scripting language that enables you to create dynamically updating content, control multimedia, animate images, and pretty much everything else.

JavaScript remains popular because it's the web's native language for interactivity—think dynamic forms, real-time updates, and smooth animations. In 2025, it powers 95% of websites, thanks to its massive ecosystem (React, Node.

The frontend uses HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frontend frameworks. The backend uses programming languages like Java, Python, Ruby, APIs, and database management systems. Each user has their own copy of an application, so the frontend does not have to handle concurrency issues.

The best programming language to learn in 2025 depends on your goals, learning style, and career aspirations. For backend stability and enterprise development, Java and Spring Boot are unbeatable. For versatility and data science, Python shines. For web dominance, JavaScript reigns supreme.

JavaScript frameworks are the best choice for mobile app development as they can be used across several platforms such as iOS, Android and Windows. The main advantage of JavaScript frameworks is that they can be used both for the backend and frontend processes of mobile application development.

Key stats. Python is the most sought-after programming language, with 42% of recruiters looking for candidates with Python skills. The 2024 RedMonk Programming Language Ranking and Statista place Python in the top 3 programming languages.
