I did, it worked...
Html:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="code.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Js: (code.js)
document.write("hello world");
It was ok...

But it worked for me with or without it, so it might be something else...

🇮🇳Vivek🇮🇳 thanks for pointing it, I read bad about his answer later,my bad.
So...
Deepak Sanjaykumar More , if you used script within body tags, is it placed by the end, before the closing body tag ? Also try to add as an attribute <script type="text/javascript" src="code.js"></script>

Just tried and it worked for me, with or without the type="text/javascript".
Would you post the whole html part ?

Check the console in the Dev tools of your browser to see if it reports an error and what is it.

You don't need to do anything in js file. You use script tag in HTML.
<script src="./your-file-name.js">
</script>

Why src is in uppercase? SRC must be in lowercase

That SRC is in lower case this Google auto correct changed it uppercase in mobile. I'm practicing my codes on laptop.

Deepak Sanjaykumar More It should work. Calviղ can you help?

Yes I used script tag just before end of body tag. You should try this simple one line document.write of java as an external source in html.
My other external code(alert) of js is worked but this document.write is not working.

EmmanueLZ. Type document.write("Hello World!"); in js and run it in html.
