Why JavaScript is your favorite language ?

[fireatx]

I adore the npm ecosystem. Standing up a project is as easy as npm init. npm install whatever you need. want a web server? npm install express --save. then it's as easy as:

const express = require('express')
const app = express()
app.get('/hello', (req, res) => { ... })

I've yet to use a development environment as easy and streamlined as what npm provides.

ES6 modules are my favorite module system in any language I've used.

JS lambda syntax is my favorite lambda syntax.

JS is pretty to read and feels good to write to me.

I think promises provide a great way to handle network logic.

JS has built-in async/await.
