Java is an Object Oriented Programming language while JS is an Object Oriented Scripting language. Now you must find the difference between programming language and scripting language In fact a scripting language is a programming language, which is interpreted, rather than compiled! The interpreter executes the program directly, translating each statement into a sequence of one or more subroutines already compiled into machine code. (Web Browser, Adobe Photoshop, ... have an Interpreter Engine for executing JS) Java, C#, ... compiled into bytecode, the virtual machine-friendly interpreted language. (JVM is Java Virtual Machine, is an abstract computing machine that enables a computer to run a Java program. ) In other words, a compiler or an interpreter is a program that converts program written in high-level language into machine code understood by the computer. Scans the entire program and translate it as a whole into machine code. It takes less amount of time to analyze the source code but the overall execution time is slower. Interpreter> - Translates program one statement at a time. - It takes less amount of time to analyze the source code but the overall execution time is slower. - No intermediate object code is generated, hence are memory efficient. - Continues translating the program until the first error is met, in which case it stops. Hence debugging is easy. - Programming language like Python, Ruby use interpreters. Compiler > - Scans the entire program and translates it as a whole into machine code. - It takes large amount of time to analyze the source code but the overall execution time is comparatively faster. - Generates intermediate object code which further requires linking, hence requires more memory. - It generates the error message only after scanning the whole program. Hence debugging is comparatively hard. - Programming language like C, C++ use compilers. No any relationship between java and js, but you can write an interpreter engine using java for running JS

Java is an object oriented programming language for applications that runs on mobile desktop and many others. Javascript is a scripting language for website which adds behaviour to the website along with HTML and CSS. The syntax is a different but quite similar in difficulty.
