The Hello World Collection
The Web — JavaScript
JavaScript / Mocha · Netscape 2.0
Famously prototyped by Brendan Eich over ten days in May 1995 — first under the name Mocha, briefly LiveScript, then renamed JavaScript in December as part of a co-marketing arrangement with Sun. This is Hello World as a hypertext document: the program does not run on a machine so much as inside a page, addressed to a browser rather than a terminal. The language="LiveScript" attribute fossilizes the moment before the rename took hold.
