What languages are you comfortable and proficient in?
If you plan to write a volume of code comparable to a small novel, you will likely want to do so in a comfortable way, able to express nuances and details in an efficient, readable, elegant manner.
There aren’t many writers who can write equally well in French and English, and even fewer who can write fluently and with finesse in Belgian French, Canadian French, UK English, Australian English, Mexican Spanish and Catalonian Spanish.
It takes constant experience and refinement to master Ruby + the rails API, something I imagine is even more true for the front end in the presence of elm etc.
I know that i would pick up the tools that my brain groks with the least effort (from a set of reliable, popular, well maintained options). The way my mind works can be the weakest link or my strongest asset — if I take it in consideration.
I can think Vue but I can’t think React. I can joyfully think Ruby but I get frustrated with C# or pho etc. slim makes me happy, erb pokes my eyes.
