• Performance: Go is a compiled language, which generally makes it faster than JavaScript (which is interpreted).
• Concurrency: Go has built-in support for concurrency with goroutines and channels. This makes it easier to write programs that can handle multiple tasks simultaneously, which is particularly useful for network servers and applications with many I/O operations.
• Static Typing: Go is statically typed, which helps catch errors at compile time rather than runtime. This can lead to more reliable code and easier refactoring, while JavaScript’s dynamic typing can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior.
• Deployment: Go compiles to a single binary, which simplifies deployment. You don’t need to worry about runtime dependencies or versioning issues on the server.
