Java Script is a web-based programming language normally used for validation of webpages. and also for client side application development. JQuery is mostly used collection of JavaScript in the form of Library. finally the JAVA, its a technology... All in one... Programming Language to develop Desktop Aplications (using Java-Fx or Swing), mobile applications (Android Development) and web-application (JSP / JSF).

What’s the difference between Java, JavaScript and jQuery? Java: Let’s start with what Java is not. Java is not coffee; you won’t find it at Starbucks. Java is not a populous island nation in the Indian Ocean; at least, not the Java we are talking about. Java is a programming language developed in 1995 for Sun Microsystems. Its main purpose is to be able to run on all different types of operating systems. In other words, a program written in Java can run on a Microsoft computer and an Apple computer. All you need is to download the Java run-time to your computer and you can run any Java applications. Java can be used on the Web, but I haven’t seen an example of a site using Java in a long time. If someone is telling you they’ll build your website using Java, they probably mean JavaScript. JavaScript: JavaScript is not Java, just like tea is not coffee and Bermuda is not the same as Java the nation. Beyond some superficial similarities in syntax (the words and symbols

As what I understand, Java can be a stand alone and is more larger&complicated while JavaScript can only run in a browser with HTML and (if you want) CSS. Also, JavaScript only deals with the behavior of webpages (like changing the bgcolor when you click a button (without reloading the page)) not the content(dealed by HTML) or the design(dealed by CSS). Lastly, jQuery is the most popular JavaScript library (basically, jQuery is a JavaScript) where you'll be able to write shorter lines of codes with the same output. I hope this would help you!
