Re:- Looking at the JS

Had opportunities to get into coding web sites but feared it. In the early 00's the web was already heavily commercialized but still stuck using bad practices from the 90's. Forced habits from all the browser-type checking or specific browser version glue etc. So when evaluating JS functionality it was easy to miss stuff, like undecidable glue bolted on over the years rather then the right tool for the job in an increasingly complex security conscious world. So how is JS looking in 2018, can anyone say? Thanks!
