What's coming next to JavaScript?

JavaScript is continuously evolving, with new features coming every year. Some say that it happens to fast, but everybody wishes some specific proposal would be implemented by browser _right now_. What new features can we use in 2024, and what can we expect soon? What are some more long-term proposed features that will have a potential huge impact of the ecosystem? We'll go together through these questions, while learning at the same time how JavaScript gets standardized!
