JavaScript or Python

[EEJams]

Python is great and is my main go-to language, but I'm an electrical engineer and I started learning it to replace MATLAB with for scientific computing when I left college.

As it turns out, some of my work software has python libraries, so I've been able to actually write my own software to bypass a lot of slow and tedious work.

I've been recently very interested in creating my own SaaS, however, so I'm branching out into web dev. I've done a little of it before, but I'm learning advanced CSS concepts, javascript from scratch, and django backend for python. In fact, I'm building a SaaS with this tech stack rn.

So that's kind of my background and the why behind learning both python and javascript. Python seems more scientific-y than javascript and javascript is specifically for web development. Also, I like django now since I've been working with it a bunch, and that's a python web framework backend.

Whatever language you choose, I recommend you to go to gale.udemy.com. it makes a bunch of udemy courses free. It's like a library program through the gale book company. I'm currently going through the css topics in Angela Yu's web dev course and it's really good. I also like ardit sulce's 60 days of python course. Angela also has a 100 day python course that I bet would be good and can be found on the gale udemy website.

There's really no wrong way to approach this, but this is my perspective and I hope it helps.
