It's great that as a self-identified .NET dev you are advocating for others to try some JavaScript.

I think this is super valuable and important. It's fine to have language preferences, but we can all learn so much by trying something new, with an open mind.

JavaScript has eaten the world and it's important for web devs to at least be familiar with what it looks like and does these days.

... Also, Netlify is great 😁. I've been hosting my personal site there for about a year and it runs on Nuxtjs. Fantastic developer UX.

Thanks, Sean. For web devs I’d say it pretty much on the critical path these days to know some JavaScript. The line between UI and backend is becoming increasingly slim/blurred as we build richer digital experiences, so we need to adapt or we’ll just become obsolete I guess. :)
