Is it necessary to learn ECMAscript 6

Just curious I just finished learning JS but the only thing I have left to learn is the ECMAscript 6. Is it necessary.

ECMAscript 6 is pretty much the future of JavaScript. Prepare for it now! ES5 is still used for legacy support. But nowadays more and more developers choose ES6 because of new features available in it. Just learn it and get some more XP 😉. The same is true about me Sonic 😂.
