I will still be writing JavaScript on the frontend, but I switched over to Go on the backend. The reason was Node; all APIs still using callbacks while all the people are using promises. And now the .mjs extension thing... 🙄
That, sumed to the fact that I wanted to try Go.
I heard a lot about the h2 implementation of Go and how speedy it was, so I gave it a try and I love the language now 😍 So much nicer to work with.
