In an HTML page, mostly text/javascript is used in the <script> tag.
Here’s an example
<script type="text/javascript"> </script>
However, the introduction of HTML5 brought some new improvements. JavaScript became the default language for HTML5 and modern browsers. Therefore, now adding text/javascript isn’t required in <script> tag.
<script> </script>
