Typescript with ts-node the only viable language
Everything else subject to some other influencers whim. Unless you can join front end with backend, they are all for children and thus destined to failure
Only half /s
Run what you want. Understand that Typescript has what you need, in general. And break out when you can justify it. And you probably can't!
I thought I loved ts-node, since it's a good patch over some annoying issues in node.
But I retried deno a few months ago (after having first tried it when it first came out) and I realised that I only ever liked ts-node, and that I actually loved deno.
Deno just ran ts as if it was ts-node without needing a dependency, or startup time, or any prior setup, and it did it so fast I thought something was wrong. It was great.
