I've found TypeScript and React with VSCode to be incredibly productive for web development. If you're on the fence, give it a shot.
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, so it brings a lot of baggage along with it, but if you're writing frontend code it's a real pleasure to work with compared to JS.
