ECMAScript ( ES) is a standard for scripting languages, including JavaScript, JScript, and ActionScript.

It is also best known as a JavaScript standard intended to ensure the interoperability of web pages across different web browsers.

It is standardized by Ecma International in the document ECMA-262.

ECMAScript is commonly used for client-side scripting on the World Wide Web, and it is increasingly being used to write server-side applications and services using Node.js and other runtime environments.
