When starting my coder journey, I've struggled with understand what I could make. My first language was Pascal (I was learning it in school). And like with many languages - all you can do with them is make programs that have no graphical interface. All interaction you have is asking the user to type in something and print something back. Everything changed when I tried JavaScript. It's easy to start. You don't even have to install anything. You have a browser? You can use it's console to write code and run it. JavaScript is the easiest language to make something interactive. Yes, you'll need a little bit of HTML, but only a bit. Just add a simple button and make it call a function by clicking it. You're already making a user interface. After that, the options are limitless. I don't even need to tell you that it's used everywhere: from startups to banks. Every website you interact with has JavaScript code. It's easy to find a job, even though there are many candidates for a Frontend Developer. And you can climb as high as you want with it. But you don't have to stick to JavaScript forever. Once you understand one language, learning another becomes way easier. It's always possible to switch. Yes, it has its quirks. But after many years, it's still my go to language.
