PYTHON vs JAVASCRIPT - Which one should you choose?! 

Thank you for your easy to understand explanation of the two languages, you answered so many questions other videos and blog posts could or did not answer.

Excited for the info in the next video!

You had some good points. I already did 1 year with JavaScript learning the front end. BUT if I had to do it over again. I would have started with Python and Django to learn how backend servers work and how to makes an API request or even make an API and lastly focus on JavaScript for the client side. My personal opinion I think learning the backend first will make you a better developer. I am starting to realize this now. Thanks for the excellent video it was informative.

✨Perfectly Explained 👏🏻 Well Done ✨

This was very helpful for me. Thank you. I have been learning for a long time and float between JS, Python, Java and a bit of PHP. Then there are the databases. The paralysis of analysis sums me up. What am I going to do now? I don't know :)

JavaScript/Node has taken the place of PHP as the most popular language to program, "a horrific, unmaintainable mess that will need to be replaced by something else". With that said, it is the most relevant, wide spread, widely supported language with an amazing amount of support and possibilities. The reason it is more "beginner friendly", is because a new developer can make something that gives them visual feed back faster than Python. This feed back loop obviously increase learning speed because you are "doing" more. On the flip side, the language itself was designed to run inside a netscape browser running on an 30mhz processor from the 90s. I know the temptation is to snap back and say, "but it's not the same as it used to be! it changed a lot!". My response would be "Yeah it has. It's way better than it was!". It being "way better than it was" doesn't make a clean, concise, up-to-date, feature rich language that is fun to work with. It's a horrific language that is just incredibly unpleasant to work with. Obviously someone who started in JavaScript and never "really" learned a second language, they will swear by it, and tell you how much they love it. By "really learned", I mean you have developed full time with it professional by 3 years. I don't mean you took a tutorial, or made some test apps. I mean you really know it on a deep level. By the time you have "really learned" 3 languages.

honestly I would start with python until u comfortable in programing and r sure u can move forward with it and then learn a second language based on ur goals/ interest ( if u still aren't sure what area u like more than pick JS to go into web dev as currently its better for job opportunities) , and after getting ur job continue to learn new languages and try out other fields of development maybe learn some ui/ ux design basics and general design basics and some business basics etc

Great video.

Thanks

As a beginner, i would always pick one of C/C++/Java/C#. They have clean syntax and give good understanding of programming concepts, data types, memory management, etc. I had started with C++, now what benefits me is that learning any language is easy peasy for me. I quickly got grasp on Java, and learned python in literally 2 days.

Thank you, you really helped me, now i can go to sleep without thinking which one i have to learn first!

JavaScript - - web app - mobile app - desktop app - Machine Learning - AI Python - - web backend app only - Machine Learning - AI - Data Science

I am transitioning to cyber/Cloud security(AWS). Should i learn JavaScript or Python.

PYTHON for beginners to programming

Well i am using JavaScript for ML and AI also... also mobile application fully with JavaScript

Hi, great suggestion thanks. Could please put top resources to learn Python like u said?

javascript is better for backend noje js , nest js , next js with data bases and very useful and fast with aws

What are the resources for python

I want to create a social media platform like Instagram and Twitter but I’m confused as to the programming language to use. I’ve been learning JavaScript for weeks. Decided to take a break and learn python just for some work-related stuff I needed, so I needed a bit of the knowledge and I won’t lie, I enjoyed it more than I did JavaScript 😂😭. And now, I’m confused and I’ve been told that learning two programming languages at the same time is not ideal. But I’m so tempted to keep learning Python but deep down I love everything you can do with JavaScript as a creative like me who likes design and all that. Please help😭 should I just learn both at the same time? 😭

For backend i will choose TypeScript only

smart guy

I will start Machine Learning with JavaScript bro

2:36 if I get a career in development, do I have to wax my beard like the guy on the left?

ncie

❤👍

I started off with Java which was pretty good in terms of the basics, but then my stupid ass went directly to PHP and then python. Java was very helpful in terms of transferring over some aspects into JavaScript, but I really haven't used Java or PHP in 6 years xD...

JavaScript is entire software ecosystem.. so its way more better then python

I don't understand anything in JavaScript for years... I don't understand the variables, Data types, loops I don't understand how these are used to create a simple website, feels like magic

JAVASCRIPT! It’s my whole personality now 😂

Are you actually a docotr?

python > js

I don't need python 😀
