Thanks for the correction. I wasn't sure hence the question. But my impression is that CS is slowly dying or becoming obsolete and there aren't major benefits over using something like ES6/TS etc. So choosing something like CS would raise a question whether the applicant knows how to choose technologies wisely (all in the context of working with other devs who probably don't know CS and also working on projects that need to grow and need to be maintained for years to come). Bigger projects have moved away from CS: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/20098 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/20098 https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/4065 https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/4065
