JavaScript is a high level, often just in time compiled language that conforms to the ECMAScript standard. It has dynamic typing, prototype based object orientation, and first class functions. It is multi paradigm, supporting event driven, functional, and imperative programming styles. It has application programming interfaces (APIs) for working with text, dates, regular expressions, standard data structures, and the Document Object Model (DOM).
The frontend is the content management application. It enables writers, editors, and project managers to work seamlessly without the need to code. The backend is the content delivery application, which is used for publishing and displaying the content in various formats based on the CMS.
Separation of formatting and content also makes it feasible to present the same markup page in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on screen, in print, by voice (via speech based browser or screen reader), and on Braille based tactile devices. CSS also has rules for alternate formatting if the content is accessed on a mobile device.
The HyperText Markup Language, or HTML is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. It can be assisted by technologies such as Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and scripting languages such as JavaScript.
