JavaScript
JavaScript is one of the oldest programming languages, dating back to 1995. Yes! It is mostly older than most people you know and probably older than you are (so give it some respect, always respect your elders :-)). It has survived the test of time and seen most of it's comraded come and go. Unequivocally, it is the ultimate candidate when it comes to nominees for Programming languages of the decade. With that said, it is safe to say that JavaScript, aka JS is here to stay and thus you should be familiar with it like the back of your hand. Aside from being the mother of most frontend frameworks like Angular, React and Vuew to mention but a few, it is also a robust and widely used backend Programming language with the likes of Node JS, Next JS. Wait, did you know that you can also make games with it? Yeah Kaboom JS!
