My JavaScript Journey: From Callbacks to Kafka – Embracing the Chaos of Event-Driven Systems

Ah, JavaScript. The language that tricked me into thinking I was a full-stack developer just because I could write both console.log("Hello World") in the browser and console.log("Hello Backend") in Node.js. Over the years, I've wrestled with React, tamed Node.js, battled Sequelize, and somehow survived the async-await apocalypse. But just when I thought I had conquered the JavaScript universe, a wild new challenge appeared: Event-Driven Architecture. And like any curious developer who doesn't get enough stress from debugging, I decided to dive headfirst into it.
