JS/TS has the biggest development community and ecosystem in the world, by far. Although other languages (especially Rust IMHO, which is awesome when used in conjunction with Parcel - zero config FFI in a nutshell) will make the web even more awesome, modern JS/TS won't go anywhere - in fact, with more and more Apps going full PWA (or JAMStack) I suspect JS/TS to grow even more fastly in the future.

Finally, someone who is not "hoping" and "waiting" and who basically is correct. Thanks for being the voice of reason. It is usually folks who have not made any real modern web apps with javascript that seem to say Javascript will die.
