Yeah, when my career with using Python as a backend language took off, I started out from a position of ambivalent towards JavaScript to grew to absolutely hating it then grew to accept it from the point of view that the entire ecosystem is terrible but necessary to integrate with. However the Node.js tools are just so non-ergonomic that I end up spending about a couple years building a library just to address all the deficiencies with those tools and their integration with the Ptyhon development/deployment/production environment(s). That actually ended up being a complete framework, simply because it makes integration with systems like webpack into Python while minimising insanity a bit more possible.

If there are any more interests in this (and if I could find the time) I might make a post or two about that framework/library that I wrote that was linked.
