The Django community goes out of its way not to learn JavaScript.
I’ve been a Django developer since 2008; I was allergic to JavaScript (for good reasons) too. After almost five years of front-end development I can tell you that most of those reasons stopped being valid sometime between 2017 and 2020. JavaScript is a great experience now.
I didn’t do it willingly. Front-end developers are expensive and hard to size up if you don’t know what Flexbox or a Promise is.
If you’re going to be doing anything web related you might as well get comfortable with the fact that learning JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, Sass, HTML, and something like RxJS is going to make you a better developer and your life easier.
