I learned Javascript first. I remember that Typescript looked so daunting to me at first. It also depends on how you approach it. My first incursion in Typescript was with an online course very poorly given, and I'm sure that's what left the "daunting" mark on me. I wish totaltypescript.com existed back then.

Civet (https://civet.dev) is probably my favorite one if I want something a bit fancier than Typescript, purely because it shares the same elements that you are as "opt-in" as much as you like, at least in my limited experience. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago
