Where should we place the JS scripts?

So far, I've learnt that placing the JS scripts in the <head> or/and <body> will delay the subsequent html elements from loading. This is because <script> tags loads first. If you want your HTML page to load fast and timely, i. e. if you want your <head> and <body> sections to load, then you must place you JS scripts after the </body> tag.

You can place your js script just before the closing body tag,as it allows all html to be loaded first

Both are correct, it all depends on whether you need to use it before the page loads or after.
