JavaScript comments come in two forms: single-line and multi-line comments.

Single-line comments begin with a double forward slash (//) and are used to comment out a single line of code.

Multi-line comments begin with a forward slash and asterisk (/*) and end with an asterisk and a forward slash (*/). This type of comment is used to comment out a block of code.
