VSCode and Typescript are stellar. In the case of Typescript, possibly industry-changing long term.
However, the .NET stack still suffers greatly from what you mentioned. The Microsoft world is like the Oracle world, you either use their stuff for everything or never touch it.
I'm confident that .NET core will change this when it's mature enough, but that's still ~2 years away.
- KurtMueller 9y ago> In the case of Typescript, possibly industry-changing long term. I feel that way about a related Microsoft product, F#. It's too bad that it doesn't get the same amount of love as Typescript. I think it's more powerful yet just as easy to use in almost every way - I never knew how powerful or expressive algebraic data types could be until I used F#.
- NicoJuicy 9y agoToo bad nobody gives an example. Check out http://fsharp.github.io/FSharp.Data/ http://fsharp.github.io/FSharp.Data/ for an example why f# is 'powerful'
- mattferderer 9y agoRepeating myself a bit in this thread. If you love F#, try checking out Fable &/or Reason. Fable compiles F# to JavaScript and Reason is Facebook's attempt at OCaml to JavaScript. F# !== Ocaml but F# == Ocaml
