What's the best language to learn next?
Hi! I currently use Node.js and ajax for websites, what do you think is a good language to learn next? I've been considering react.js. What are your thoughts?
Thanks

Hi, if you like to learn how to solve problems differently than in most other mainstream programming languages, I would recommend you to take a look at Clojure. This video explains the differences very well:

If you are into web development and React take a look at ClojureScript (compiles to JS) and shadow-cljs too:

Oh wow thanks Max, I'll be sure to check it out
Wow! Clojure also came up in some earlier posts as well. It's great to see many Clojure enthusiasts here.
Interesting @maxweber
Happy to answer questions :)
Clean terminology here: you learned javascript, so if you learned react.js you wouldn't be learning a new language, you'd be learning a framework.
Decide is you want a fancy SPA and then if so use javascript in the browser, if not use server-side rendering template languages like jade (pug) with node.js
I have been using a lot of EJS lately but I've been venturing into front-end communication with nodejs so I'll probably learn react.js as a framework. Thanks
