JavaScript can be helpful for beginners of Block Chain

Block Chain is a technology that may surely takeover in all the fields and it can be employable in major sectors to create the source of modern employment.

So coming to the point.

where JavaScript can be used in block chain ?

In Ethereum smart contracts.

what are smart contracts ?

Smart contract is a protocol written in lines of code which has certain terms and conditions to trade and exchange like bonds which in simple refers to an agreement between buyers and sellers.

Knowing JavaScript can definitely ease your path when switching to Solidity in the block chain development.

Officially Java programming is recommended because of the object oriented programming to learn the concepts of solidity.

well what is solidity and the difference between Javascript ?

Solidity is a like any other object oriented programming language but it can be used in Block chain development alone for now. Where as JavaScript being universal it can be widely used in web development in several applications.

TL;DR :

Since Solidity is OOPS based and JavaScript also can be used as OOJS (Object Oriented JavaScript), Learning JavaScript functions, loops and other concepts can ease up the process of learning solidity and get hands on experience in creating smart contracts based on Ethereum Network.
