Hey everyone! I'm starting my journey as a computer science freshman and I currently know Java. I'm wondering what programming language I should focus on next. I'm considering JavaScript to start building real applications (along with HTML and CSS), or should I dive into Python to prepare better for technical interviews? Alternatively, I've heard C++ is essential for some software I'd like to make. What do you all think?

Given your background, I suggest trying Scala. It’s a real language running on the JVM and will expose you to plenty of concepts in software engineering. JavaScript is also good to know, but I'd recommend only learning the basics. C++ might be a bit overwhelming for you now as a freshman.
If you want a fun side project, I created a new language aimed at AI applications! Check it out if you're interested in that area: https://learn.convo-lang.ai/.
Consider learning what you’re currently studying in school or the next class you're taking, and then learn more than what’s required. This will really help you in the long run!
