I don't think it's easy for everyone! But indeed, if you're a JS frontend developer, it's good to use because you don't have to learn a new language (again).

I will admit that I did not learn Node after I learned JavaScript. It took me more than a year before I finally decided to look into it. Back then I only cared about front-end development the thought of working on the back-end did not appeal to me that much. But now I'm full-stack so my eyes have been opened and I have grown as a developer.
