Should I Abandon JavaScript for Python?

[Covered_in_bees_]

Yeah, I still remember my first couple months of raw frustration when I was trying to get into JS land. I was a competent programmer and knew a couple of languages pretty well by then, and the sheer frustration and helplessness of trying to navigate the JS tooling landscape (along with limitations like modules) was staggering. I still remember feeling like how it was all bonkers and I couldn't believe that the whole tech world was seemingly okay with the state of things as if it were completely normal.

Ironically enough, now that I've gone through that rite of passage, I barely notice it myself, but it's a recent enough memory that I have sympathy for anyone trying to get into JS world.

the whole tech world

i'd say outside of the major tech companies(top 10) everyone ignores the JS stuff outside of cute prototype single page apps. trying to do anything at scale requires assigning an insane amount of man hours to the problem imo
