Good answer but this forum is about low level programming, not about platforms. So in that regard we would prefer either C++ or C# for developing...
Yes and if you want to go the other way (C# -> JS), there's a tool for that too: http://projects.nikhilk.net/ScriptSharp
We are a VAR for Barchart, except we are not technically "reselling" anything. We provide free support service and in exchange, we hope that...

Yes it is worth it, a hundred thousand times over. This is a real investment in yourself. Learn a real programming language and free yourself...
