The Binchecker API is a Javascript API. This means that if you are familiar with the programming language, you already have all the necessary knowledge to use it and will have a much easier time learning its various functionalities.
What is Javascript?
JavaScript is a programming language whose main function is to make Web pages more dynamic. Its popularity has been expanding since the mid-nineteen nineties, when it was developed by Netscape Communications and named after its use in java applets.
The language is based on ECMAscript (a standard established by the European Computer Manufacturers Association), which is also the case with other programming languages such as Java and Perl.
JavaScript may be used for any purpose, such as scripting web pages and controlling user interface components. From simple mouseovers to remote calls to server-side processes, JavaScript is capable of running an increasingly wider spectrum of applications.
This constitutes an alternative option to traditional desktop applications. As these have been adapted for use with JavaScript, it has become one of the pillars of web development.
JavaScript has become the most widely supported and used programming language in the world thanks to its ease of use and its low barrier to entry for both developers and end users. In fact, there are many reasons for its massive diffusion.
How popular is JavaScript?
It is widely used in web development since it emerged in 1995. Since then it has been updated several times by the W3C consortium’s standardization team. The most widely used version is ECMAScript 5, which was released in 2009. Together with this standard, there are other versions of JavaScript such as 1 and 2, sometimes also referred to as legacy code, which are only supported by older browsers.
This language has been widely adopted by developers both on desktops and mobile devices as it is compatible with all types of systems and operating systems (Windows, Linux, etc.). It also has several free implementations on almost all operating systems or can be embedded directly inside other languages such as Java or C++.
For this reason, and perhaps the most outstanding fact about JavaScript’s diffusion, is that it is present in all web browsers available on many platforms such as macOS or Windows, but also mobile devices such as Android or iOS.
