its no surprise why javascript is number one given that everybody and their mama are into web dev in the social media age. Never cared to check TypeScript though. Is it a superset of JavaScript? why does it share a similar name?

Yeah, it's just a superset of Javascript. I mostly deal with PHP and Javascript, I'll have to dabble in Typescript :ehh:

It's a strict superset of JavaScript that adds optional static typing and compiles to JavaScript

I got to get into learning python. I have the udemy course so i should begin using it. I have alot of ansible experience and the modules are written in python so this would be helpful if i need to create my own module.
