Although JavaScript is now the most widely used programming language worldwide, it is not usually the first language that comes to mind for building a blockchain. This could be because JavaScript is frequently regarded as a front-end technology, despite the continuous development and use of Node.js. Lisk changes everything about that misconception and empowers Javascript developers to build powerful blockchains.

\
The goal of this article is to teach you how to build Javascript Blockchains with the Lisk SDK. By the end, you will be able to utilize it to build your own blockchain application using JavaScript.

## If you are a JavaScript developer new to blockchain

Are you a JavaScript developer interested in learning about blockchain but unsure of where to begin? You should first read the blog post[ ](https://lisk.com/blog/research/blockchain-javascript-how-create-and-develop-blockchain-using-javascript)__[Blockchain in JavaScript](https://lisk.com/blog/research/blockchain-javascript-how-create-and-develop-blockchain-using-javascript)__, which will give you an overview of some of the fundamentals and major benefits of utilizing JavaScript for blockchain development.

Once you are done with that, you can begin with some of our free Javascript-based blockchain application tutorials listed below. Additionally, there are several educational courses and some guidance for deploying your own blockchain application concept.
