I use JavaScript in all of my projects and maintain a sizeable number of Node.js modules on NPM. I prefer CommonJS over AMD and prefer package.json scripts over task runners like Grunt or Gulp. I have a thorough understanding of modern JavaScript and upcoming additions to the ECMAScript specification. I currently consider JavaScript my primary language.
