Surprising not to see EmberJS listed in the front end frameworks. Did it not make top 20 or was it an oversight?
While EmberJS is a solid framework, I don't think it is a "rising star"

Typescript will completely change your productivity and is a massive game changer for JS. You don’t even have to learn much for it to add massive value.
Any good resource recommendations.

#14I’m currently organizing a roadmap for improving my full-stack skills. I work in JS with Node and React. Does anyone have any opinion on whether I should spend time learning Deno and Typescript instead of digging deeper into what I already know? I find it hard to tell if Deno will start showing up in job descriptions in a few years, or if Node is so entrenched that it would only distract me from building on my curren…

I’m a huge fan, but I also think that merely leveraging type checking with jsdoc is powerful.
It also keeps me more honest because I’m not going through the trouble of typing a parameter or variable just to make it any.

Master typescript and you will be rewarded greatly! It is a fantastic tool with a very high level of adoption already. It makes React significantly easier to write and refactor. You won’t ever go back to plain .js!
Deno is not relevant enough, I would wager 99.99% of the existing projects you might find yourself working on in the next few years will be using node somewhere in the stack. It shouldn’t be hard to pick up deno when it eventually does show up.

#18As a somewhat fad averse engineer who has more or less settled into his own preferred toolchain for FE and BE JavaScript, I plan to invest some time in next.js, tailwind and emotion soon ish. Great to see the state of the art still being pushed. Might see how feasible porting my existing nodejs projects to deno is too.

#19I shunned the JS world for a while after jumping on the Meteor bandwagon a few years ago and seeing it just fizzle out to a boat load of outdated and unsupported dependencies. Rails was just so much more productive and easy for solo work. But recently I built a couple of services in typescript and the ecosystem seems to have stabilised a lot, my productivity was super high and I’m majorly impressed.
what was your ts stack ? vue ? react ?

Deno is still incompatible with JS ecosystem
