Most of my development experience is in Python, and Clojure's what excites me the most these days. I've had to write a lot of Javascript for work, and it turns out that there's a large community of Javascript developers who wish they were writing Clojure, and they've built libraries like tcomb, Immutable.js and transducers.js to get pretty close.
In the transpilers era, Javascript will never be so bad that choosing another dynamic language is a clear win. I'd go back to Python and Django for a CRUD app, but since Javascript is easier to write in a functional style than Python, I've actually started to prefer it as a first choice.
