I mostly regularly use JavaScript. For a decade I worked as a front end developer for an enterprise web product. I've since moved into UX leadership, but still program for fun when I can find the time. I tend to use React/Node/Postgres because it's what I'm comfortable with. It lets me keep my skills sharp, experiment with UI patterns, and solve problems for myself. I don't find myself experimenting with new languages or frameworks as much anymore.

Haha very true. Although I heard designers more than developers these days.
