Discussion on: Why do you love working with your programming language?

I love Javascript! I just love that I can use the same language client and server side. And there are libraries and frameworks for pretty much anything. It's like... am I even a programmer? It makes my life and job easier, but it also makes it so much easier to help people start coding - teaching two languages (one for client, one for server) confuses people a lot.

On top of that, I kinda love the weird parts of Javascript. I love when something doesn't work and I find out it's because Javascript is being weird again. It's like my disappointing child.

I feel the same! Javascript is amazing! It is being the most crazy adventure with code in my life. Nowadays there aren't any limits for JS. I mean, we can do web apps, mobile apps and desktop apps and also cover ALL sides (frontend and backend) of these apps, with the same language. It is just awesome.
