'''Server-side JavaScript''' ('''SSJS''') refers to [[JavaScript]] that runs on the [[server-side]]. This term was coined because the language is predominantly used on the [[client-side]], i.e. [[client-side JavaScript]] (CSJS). |
|||
The first implementation of SSJS was [[Netscape Communications Corporation|Netscape]]'s LiveWire,{{citation needed|date=July 2010}} included in its [[Netscape Enterprise Server|Enterprise Server 2.0]] product,<ref>[http://docsrv.sco.com/INT_LiveWire/CONTENTS.html Netscape LiveWire Developer's Guide]</ref> released in 1996. [[CommonJS]] is a project to provide common specifications for SSJS development.<ref>http://commonjs.org</ref> |
|||
Server-side JavaScript is becoming more popular because of faster JavaScript engines and the convenience of using the same language for both client and server.<ref>{{cite web|last=Wayner|first=Peter|title=JavaScript conquers the server|url=http://www.infoworld.com/d/application-development/javascript-conquers-the-server-969|publisher=InfoWorld|accessdate=8/16/11|date=May 25, 2011}}</ref> One popular project driving server-side use is [[Node.js]], based on the [[V8 JavaScript engine]] from [[Google Chrome]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Paul|first=Ryan|title=Reflecting on Chrome as browser hits third birthday|url=http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2011/09/reflecting-on-chrome-as-browser-hits-third-birthday.ars|publisher=[[Ars Technica]]|accessdate=24 September 2011|date=1 September 2011}}</ref> |
