Ruby, JavaScript, & Python were all successful without explicit type annotations.
- oblio 7y agoJavascript is the extension language for the most successful platform in history. A lot of people consider it a horrible language, and yet, here we are. Ruby and Python both started as scripting/glue languages meant for small programs. At that scale, it doesn't really matter. When the codebases they were used for started getting bigger and started having longer histories and a need for refactoring, that's when people started asking for more structure.
