Is JavaScript actually incredibly simple?

I struggled to learn JS for years, mostly because I found the syntax strangely burdensome = () => {} coming from Python ():

But now I have been using chatGPT to program frontend and the more I have GPT generate the reactjs for me, the more repetitive and simple I am finding it https://mobdro.bio/ .

So I started to gain some confidence and today I searched on Amazon for a cheat sheet (I was actually looking for a css cheat sheet first and found one that is like 4 pages long.)

The only JS cheat sheet I could find is one page and really just has some basic info. Which felt like it was starting to confirm to me that once you get past the Ålien syntax, JS is actually pretty simple.

Am I missing something here?

@automica The question is a straight cut and paste from Reddit so I have already marked it as spam
