Abstract
JavaScript is a computer-programming language that’s at the heart of an HTML5 game. Almost everything that’s important in your game is going to be controlled by JavaScript in some way. JavaScript is one of the easiest programming languages to learn. You can learn everything that’s important to know about JavaScript in a few hours or days, and, with a bit of practice, you’ll be writing it fluently in no time.
