Hello,

I am thinking about teaching my students JavaScript first so that they can start creating websites and make their career, what are your thoughts?

JS is actually pretty great as a language these days.

It doesn't have to imply NPM hell. And it's got normal syntax and doesn't do Python's weird meaningful-indentation thing.

(It does have the == typecasting weirdness though.)
