Doesn't JavaScript suffer from most of the same issues the author raises about Python. > Documentation JavaScript wins here thanks to MDN, but it's not the official documentation. > Package Management I agree that Python's package management has its issues, but JS is insane in this regard > Standard Library JavaScript's standard library is definitely smaller than Python's > Slow This is clearly a win for JS > Size When comparing the slim official Python docker image with the equivalent NodeJS image, Python wins in size > Syntax This is the most subjective point. I prefer Python's syntax because it's less noisy, but JavaScript's syntax is more consistent. Regarding type annotations they don't do anything at runtime, but they are extremely useful for IDEs.
