php - Is there a way to hide javascript code?

Question

I have this script that starts with <script> and finishes with </script>

People can actually see it if they go to the source code of the page.

Is there a way to avoid that? I mean to make that code invisible as if it where PHP?

Answer 1

No, with normal JavaScript it is run on the client-side which means that it must be accessible to the user's browser running it. You can try obfuscating your code, or a newer technology like server-side JS (V8) But for traditional JavaScript it must be run client-side.
