Windows had a whole mechanism with VBX and OCX for building the components and keeping their innards isolated. Javascript had no equivalent.

- badsectoracula 6y agoYes, but this was only for Visual Basic. Delphi, MFC and WinForms each have their own and is just a library. JavaScript also had libraries since, if nothing else, you can always load multiple scripts per html page. Also, FWIW, i wasn't only referring to JavaScript but also server-side too (e.g. PHP or Python or whatever).
