Last year, JavaScript hit a huge milestone – it turned 25 years old! When JavaScript was kicking off, Google was just getting started and Amazon sold its first book. Fast forward to today, and 96% of the world’s websites depend on JavaScript and it’s the number one programming language per surveys such as Redmonk and Stack Overflow.
In this talk, given by Robin Ginn, Executive Director of the OpenJS Foundation, the audience will get an in-depth look into how this well-established and beloved programming language is continuing to innovate, and how her organization is building amazing and diverse communities to meet global challenges. While JavaScript has hit the 25-year mark, it’s hardly peaked. In fact, the best is yet to come.
