Conf42: JavaScript 2022

Building Machine Learning-powered Applications with JavaScript

When dealing with machine learning (ML) requirements, most teams generally start using Python or R due to the number of references available using those languages. However, there are cases where companies do not have the bandwidth and budget to learn a new language on top of JavaScript especially if JavaScript and Node.js are being used in most deployed systems. That said,...
