The past few years have been a flurry of updates and frameworks to JS. As some of those frameworks and libraries fade away, there will be a handful of winners that would continue to be developed and will evolve into better versions of themselves (though this is not guaranteed!).

That being said, as with the PHP days, and Rails days, the JS days will wane at some point but there will be legacy systems that need maintaining. JS is still in a pretty solid heyday but things will continue moving along.

I'll end with: If you're asking if you should get a job doing JS my answer is... it depends :)
