What is Full stack JavaScript?

Full Stack JavaScript

JavaScript has been around for over 20 years. It is the dominant programming language in web development.

In the beginning JavaScript was a language for the web client (browser). Then came the ability to use JavaScript on the web server (with Node.js).

Today the hottest buzzword is "Full Stack JavaScript".

The idea of "Full Stack JavaScript" is that all software in a web application, both client side and server side, should be written using JavaScript only.

✔ Programming in C will slowly decline.
Programming in JavaScript will be more important.
