For beginners I think it's not just about the language. They need to understand core parts of programming.

  1. basic stuff (function, loop, list.. Etc)
  2. Package management
  3. Platform you're targeting

If you get the basic fast enough the it's no problem what language you're using.

Coercion, this, and prototype inheritance are next step from beginners level. It's language feature.

So yes JavaScript, because it's already on a browser no pain to set up the env
