> In my experience, JS code has a life expectancy of about a year and a half. Maybe for toy projects. I‘m working on projects that take years to build and are around for many years. There are problems with JS but with TypeScript and React I find it more maintainable and robust than other languages. The worst project I‘ve worked on in the last few years had 800k lines of C# around a C++ core from the early 90s. It was terrible to work with and far worse than anything I‘ve seen in the Javascript world.
