Web browsers today need to be versatile and must support a range of extensions, add-ons, and Javascript. If you are new to this concept, let us take a look at what Javascript is.
Basically, Javascript is a scripting program that allows specific functions or features to be run on the webpage from a web browser such as Microsoft Edge. It is essential that browsers today support Javascript in order to run certain graphics-based or interactive features on the web page.
Javascript is a feature that is enabled by default on all PCs which is why when you open a web page on the Microsoft Edge browser, you will see that you can interact with all the elements of the web page without a problem.
