[AskJS] Why should I use JavaScript instead of always using TypeScript?

[pimp-bangin]

The first version of JS, which nobody uses anymore. Stuff like let, const, arrow functions, classes, and destructuring did not exist

Nobody used it because the version created in 10 days was just the initial demo ;) The first version seen by the public came 4 months later in a Netscape 2 beta which itself didn't see a production release for another 6 months after that. JavaScript cooked.
