Hey /prog/ I just finished everything on http://freecodecamp.com But I don't want to stick with javascript everything. Is there resources you know of that can help me get out of this? I've been looking into Go but I don't know what to do.

Check out PDF related and see if its inline with what you want.

You're in luck because Brian Kernigham of K&R fame is writing a book on Go exactly like Programming in the C Language http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-Addison-Wesley-Professional-Computing/dp/0134190440 (avoid Amazon as per RMS request ;P buy straight from publisher )

There's a load of Go material already available

https://www.golang-book.com/guides/bootcamp

Both Rob Pike and Kerningham do everything in Go these days. Playing around with webdev I've been doing everything backend in Go too. It's a good, simple language, with not much room to hang yourself security wise. It also compiles in seconds, something nobody warned me about so was like magic the first time I saw it. The only problem with Go is there's no real debugger for it yet, though you can sort of use gdb http://golang.org/doc/gdb

Simply choose wathever language you like. Guide yourself by wathever you fancy, either because you like the community, you like the specs, or eve n the logotype.

It doesn't matter, there are active efforts to break the browser monopoly of javascript (wasm) and once the dam breaks javascript will return to be the toy language it always was, and all the people posting terrible convoluted code and labeling as "elegant" will be cast into oblivion.

TL;DR anything but javascript.

Pick 5 languages you like, and out of them, I'll bet you at least one will compile to Javascript.

Javascript sadly is unlikely to go anywhere anytime soon. They just keep making more and more abstractions and frameworks, so the entire server/app/browser domains are totally in js with junk like React, Agular, Ember, Backbone, Node, ect ect.

Now employers only have to select a pool of javascript developers instead of finding Go devs for server infrastructure backends, Erlang devs for concurrent message passing systems, comptent C/C++ system administrators, ect. They just need one javascript guy who boots up an absolute shit show of frameworks and controls the server, backend daemons, frontend, mobile app(s) ect. all from js.

Then it will be a race to the bottom, open up huge developer factories in Bangladesh, they just need to know .js everything else totally abstracted away.
