I think AoC is a great way to learn a new language as long as you don't stress out about your pace. But whatever language you use, AoC will definitely sharpen your skills with it.
By the way, JavaScript isn't the "easy" way out for me. 😜
This is my first year doing it, and I chose Haskell for it. I'm stil learning it, so my focus is more on solving the challenges than optimization.
I thought about doing Javascript, but I decided that would be the "easy" way out 😂
I'm also keeping a git repo for my solutions.
I'm keeping each day separate, but I have a feeling that my IntCode interpreter will be a recurring component...

Yeah I'm not too worried about pace, just want to solve them all.
And when I said easy, I meant for me I wouldn't really need to think about the language, just about the puzzles.
