Keep Betting on JavaScript
A look at how JS got to where it is today as well as where it’s headed, but asking the critical questions of if that future direction will continue to be a good one or not?

Nice talk man.
I am a JavaScript dev too. I love it and I have little experience with other programming languages if compared.
Still, as devs we all should know things will change and normally they do for the better. Flash/ActionScript used to be big, and was killed for good. Angular.js was the first web framework for most people and received enormous adoption, but was killed too.
JavaScript is big and is not going anywhere for a couple years. WebAssembly, as it is right now, is something that will work WITH JavaScript and not replace it. It might start to take its place on the long run though, if that starts to show signs that it will allow the web to move forward faster and better.
JS will continue to grow steadly during next years and WebAssembly MAY start to see some adoption this year. As devs, we need to watch the trends, be ready for the changes and evolve with them.
Thankyou, big fan of him!
Good talk and that Wesley movie is great !
As a TypeScript developer, I was waiting for 35:02
Well , that's a conference about spaceships 😂😁😅
Thanks, Kyle! I too am a view page source kid. ;)
Its depend on us.. What will be out future..
We need to start contribute more to web.
I learned a lot from Kyle, looking at him as a God, but the end note is totally ridiculous. Why is web assembly different from minimized or even not minimized code in react, vue, svelte, ember, mythril, aurelia, etc...? Page source nowadays is not as useful as before a couple of years ago...
I agree, we always build abstraction above abstractions. Most of the time that is how we make technology more accessible.
It's different because it will allow us to write front-end code in Python, Go, Rust or Scala, which is not possible yet. He's afraid that this will fragment the community and lower its focus on the JavaScript core. I get his point, but as a Python / JS developer, I enjoy working in Python a lot more. If a front-end framework arrived with the experience that Vue provides but in the language of Python, I would jump ship asap.
Front-end development is convoluted indeed, but the argument of not being able to "view source" anymore is totally made-up.
Well, that was depressing.
The guy who makes his living off evangelizing Javascript through books and conference talks is telling you to keep using Javascript.
I mean he actually admits to this in the first several minutes
Scott Blue : Its JS in the end, its Ecma Tc39 who makes rules.
No matter whichever framework you use, all of em are complied to Js.
So even if you are using vue angular react, you are using JS.
Kyle preaches " Know your JS", dont rely on frameworks that limit you.
Thats a total alpha mindset I can connect with.
