Is it difficult to learn a new programming language after JavaScript?

Question

JavaScript

Everyone says: "It will be very difficult for you to cope with JavaScript after another language." But what if JS has already become the first programming language? And what is the easiest language to switch from JS to?

Answer 1

Listen less to everyone, do more with your hands. "It will be very difficult for you" is a subjective assessment. Treat the new language like it's new (don't look at it like it's your old language with a different syntax). Don't try to drag your old habits into a new language. There are some analogies, but always ask how it is customary to do "it".
Next, what is your problem? The language is chosen for the project, for the task, for the requirements, and not easier. If we talk about a horse in a vacuum, then try Python

Answer 2

JS is the pinnacle of programming development, I seriously
have nothing simpler and more efficient, in this it is similar to C
, you can do everything - websites, mobile and desktop applications, servers, microns
going back to the past is hard and pointless,
and if, for example, there is not enough node.js on the server - try Go
, it seems to be the same minimalist
simplicity and minimalism is very
good when your code works everywhere and quickly

Answer 3

Is it difficult to learn a new programming language after JavaScript?

What do you mean by "learn a new language"? Learn the syntax of a new language? No, it’s not difficult, but it’s not particularly clear why you generally need it? Knowing the syntax of a language without a deeper understanding of what is going on at a lower level is like knowing the alphabet without understanding what the words (composed of the letters of that alphabet) mean.
And even if you have learned the N language very well (I'm talking about the syntax), it will be about 5% of what you will need to learn in general in order to become a high-class specialist in the world of modern development.
Answering your question literally - "learning a new language" is not difficult, neither before nor after ...
