Overview:

JavaScript has been a much maligned programming language. Browser incompatibilities, poor implementations, and some superficial flaws in its design have led to numerous headaches for developers, and for a long time, it was seen as an evil to be avoided. All of this belies the fact that JavaScript is a very powerful language. It has support for closures, functional programming, and meta-programming. In fact, it offers many of the same features that have helped to make Ruby the recent darling of the programming world. More importantly, JavaScript might be a better scripting language choice for Java programmers. Much of JavaScript's syntax and conventions follows those of Java.
