TypeScript 5.0
Scala.js seems interesting, and I will look into it more. But if it is so nice, why hasn't it taken off like TypeScript?

Scala was traditionally a backend language (and has a bit of an image problem, and some genuine community politics troubles), and isn't so well known on the front end side. I do believe it's genuinely the best language going though.
