You would have to name off a long list of languages before you hit one I didn't think was better than Javascript. Python does seem to hit the sweet spot of "user friendly" and "maintainable" that Javascript shoots for but never hits. I actually consider Dart the "perfect" Javascript. I wish it had wider adoption, and ways to integrate a GUI that aren't "AngularDart in a web browser." Kotlin is my latest fetish. I haven't played around with its JS transpiler yet, or it's native builds, but I'm cautiously hopeful.
