While many folks think of JavaScript as a “modern” web programming language, it is, in fact, only a year younger than PHP. In this episode of the Delicious Brain Waves podcast, Iain chats with WP Migrate developer Ahmed about the history of JavaScript.
Ahmed takes us through how JavaScript came about, why it was almost universally hated at one point, and how the language has evolved in recent years.
