Frontend
JavaScript
The runtime underneath everything we ship on the web
What it is
JavaScript is the core programming language of the web, running in every browser and, via Node.js, on servers as well.
Why it matters
A single language across frontend and backend (JavaScript/TypeScript) reduces context-switching for engineering teams and makes it practical to share code, types, and validation logic across the stack.
Where we use it
As the runtime beneath our TypeScript codebases, and directly where a lighter-weight script or integration doesn't warrant a full TypeScript build step.
Capabilities

- Browser-native interactivity
