Head & Footer Code plugin helps you add custom code snippets (JavaScript, CSS, or HTML) to the page even if you are not a programmer. It could be within the <code><head></code> (site verification code for various services, custom styles, meta or Webfont link), right after opening <code><body></code> (pixel tracking, analytics or heatmap code) or just before closing <code></body></code> tag.
Go to Tools → Head & Footer Code in WordPress Dashboard. Insert custom code to HEAD, BODY or FOOTER section (depending on what you have to do).
All magic is done by hooking to WordPress hooks <code>wp_head</code>, <code>wp_footer</code> and <code>wp_body_open</code>.

If your WordPress shows the latest blog posts on the homepage, you can also add specific code only for the homepage on Tools → Head & Footer Code (there will be section Head, body and footer code on Homepage in Blog Posts mode)
<h3>Article specific code</h3>
To insert custom code specific for individual article (post, page or custom post type), use article-specific Metabox while editing post/page/custom post type (check out <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/head-footer-code/#screenshots" rel="ugc">Screenshots</a>). There choose if that specific code appends to site-wide code defined on Tools → Head & Footer Code, or to replace it.
<h3>Category specific code</h3>
You can also define a Category specific code on each individual category.
Other taxonomies (tag and custom taxonomy) do not have available their specific code, but for them a Global code is used instead.

Head & Footer Code

This plugin is what exactly I'm looking for to add custom javascript and CSS codes to specific pages without inserting them inside the template.

A must have plugin

Easy add site-wide, category and article specific custom code before the closing </head> and </body>, or after opening <body> tag.

WordPress HTML allows you to add custom HTML to both the post/page BODY and the HEAD tags from the page editor.
When copying HTML into the WordPress editor it adds spurious tags which break various elements and corrupt the HTML. By saving the HTML in the custom fields dialogue the exact HTML will be output to your post/page.
Also if you have a single page which requires an extra javascript library or style sheet you normally have to add it through your themes php files. Updating the theme files can be a pain; we normally have to set up an exception for that individual page and load it there. As this information is not available when we are editing the actual pages in the WordPress editor it is quite obstructive.
With WordPress HTML, we can add the library or stylesheet directly to the post/page head without the need to change the theme files. And importantly, all from within the WordPress editor for that page.
Example libraries: 
jQuery, ChartJS, D3js, Highcharts, Prototype

WordPress HTML

Add raw HTML to any post/page, without the Wordpress editor breaking it.
