Yeah this is on me, I've never done web dev in my life. Always been low level shit for me. (The project is a highly networked system with isolates, async/await, futures, etc)

But damn man comparatively JS/TS seems a lot easier ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

That is true, Typescript and JavaScript look easier. And heck if all you want to do is make the money dance on your web page it really is easier.

But writing actual application? That does actual work with error handling? Hell, no. It honestly baffles me that anyone would use JavaScript of their own free will, unless that's the only language you know.
