Primarily TypeScript. It... eh. It makes dealing with larger codebases with a bunch of people working on it way better. For solo/hobby programming (which I never do anyway), I probably wouldn't bother. I generally just hate the entire JS/npm ecosystem, build tools, etc.

I kind of want to check out F# at some point since I feel like I keep hearing about it. There's also a part of me that misses Ruby, which I haven't used in years.
