Javascript is used as client side scripting
language.it adds interactive features to
a web page. It is used for validate purpose.
There are two types of validation :

client side validation.
2.
Server side validation
Client side is done at browser. For to
limit the user age as 18 we can done at browser. But for example to check no of
books available you have check database such this need server side validation.
To run java script different browsers
use different engines. For example chrome use v8 and Mozilla use spider monkey
engines

popular editor for javascript.
The notes are below are taken from Wikipedia
A JavaScript
engine is a computer program that executes JavaScript (JS) code. The
first JavaScript engines were mere interpreters, but all relevant modern
engines use just-in-time compilation for improved performance.
JavaScript engines are typically
developed by web browser vendors, and every major browser has one. In a
browser, the JavaScript engine runs in concert with the rendering engine via
the Document Object Model.
The use of JavaScript engines is not
limited to browsers. For example, the Chrome V8 engine is a core component of
the popular Node.js and Deno runtime systems.
Since ECMAScriptt (ES) is the
standardized specification of JavaScript, ECMAScript engine is another name for these engines.
