JavaScript has a very limited future in my mind. With new technologies like Rust and WebAssembly taking over and languages like Elm trying to perfect web-development rising, I do not see any potential future where JavaScript stays.
Heck, even other technologies I hate like Golang and Python have a high chance on their own to kill JavaScript. If JavaScript wants to survive, Deno is the only technology that will keep it that way. Even then it also fairly well supports TypeScript, which can itself take over and kill JavaScript.
Just a hobbyist programmer with an eye on new technologies. Currently helping Quasar and NestJS Frameworks, because....well.....because they're awesome! :-)
Rust and WebAssembly are only for low level - high performance programming needs. They'll never replace JavaScript for a productive dev experience and thus can't be the reason for JavaScript's end. My 2 cents on that. :)
TypeScript is a superset of javascript, so it wouldn't really be possible for it to kill javascript.
The day rust becomes the norm for frontend web development, I think I'll stop building things for the web. For a server, sure, even though I much prefer go over rust, but for the frontend? I sure don't hope so.

JavaScript is in advantage compared to other technologies. But it should die some day!
