The same has been said of almost every language in existence.

Let me maintain my larger program in JavaScript. It will require smarter staff, but the application will be more flexible and change more quickly than that same large program written in Java or C#.



smarter staff == higher salaries, not welcome in big companies.


If where you're working has a big company mentality, someone in the decision making process screwed the pooch when they decided on JavaScript as an application programming language.


I already answered on a previous post that I only work in big projects where we stay away of languages like JavaScript for application development.

For us the proper place for JavaScript is the browser, just to do some DHTML stuff.
