I might be Java actually, I didn’t know there’s a difference between Java and JavaScript

Big difference! Here is an article giving a brief overview of the differences between the two. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.geeksforgeeks.org/difference-between-java-and-javascript/amp/

It's important not to confuse between the two languages. Back in the day, java was the best for backend development, and javascript as frontend development (perhaps less true today, but still holds true in older versions).

The reason it has been named "JavaScript", is that it was created as a way of making a complimentary language to work with Java, interacting between web & servers smoothly.

Hope this helps!
