I would further add that JS is becoming the assembly of everything. It is now hip to write desktop applications, server back ends and mobile applications in JS. Pick a language and I will find you a transpiler or 10 that will convert that to JS. There are also lots of new languages invented just for transpiling to JS. People spend months of their life writing compilers and toolchains for free, so that one day some other company can profit from their labours. There are dozens of JS package managers and packing systems. JS files start with 100's of bytes of boilerplate to try and figure out what defacto module system is being used and then respond appropriately. |

JS use is definitely increasing. I'm not sure if you're using "hip" positively or not.
