I appreciate Javascript's LISPy qualities, but it has an inordinate number of footguns and a relative lack of standard, stable libraries. Coming from languages like Java and Erlang that are relatively scrupulous about such things is a bit jarring. I do like Typescript though, as it adds some really nice ergonomics.
