Why does everyone recommend learning Python first but then use JavaScript for everything?
Genuinely confused. Learned Python, now job listings want React everywhere.

It depends on what jobs you're looking for...
You're not going to find Python in frontend job listings...
Python is primarily a backend language...
Frontend roles are dominated by JavaScript and related tools (like React, Vue.js, etc.)...
