JavaScript Environment

Scriptable uses Apple's JavaScriptCore, which supports ECMAScript 6.

Learning JavaScript

If you're just getting started with JavaScript, you may want to take a look at Codecademy's Intro to Programming in JavaScript. For a quick reference to JavaScripts features, you may refer to W3Schools' JavaScript Tutorial.

Note that some guides and tutorials will assume that you're running JavaScript in a browser and therefore have access to browser specific objects, such as a document. Scriptable does not run JavaScript in a browser and therefore such objects do not exist.
