I don't think JS will fall out of favor for a long time.

Languages that compile to wasm are unlikely to be competitive until native dom access has broad browser support, which could be years. On top of that, compilers will have to be written to do code splitting and compile times will have to drop.

Languages with strong type systems are unlikely to be competitive because TypeScript is good enough that JS projects are now manageable.
