You could use JavaScript although I would go straight to TypeScript. Or maybe C#.

I am biased as I work with TS and C# .Net.

Assuming we are not developing for Apple devices, it’s C# all the way for me. I haven’t touched another language that I would choose over it. The language is clear and functionally complete and all I suspect I will ever need for desktop application development.

Sidenote: I am fond of using JS for web dev, though the looseness of the syntax and the whole ‘objects are just arrays’ things make it hard to recommend for beginners

I’m Linux-exclusive tho

there are unofficial dotnet compilers on linux, but I honestly c is just better.
