It's not discussion in good faith. > Minifying is highly overrated to begin with Compression is not magic and minifying has real world performance gains in JS projects at least - I don't see how Python would be different here. > Lambdas are supported If you want to write your event handlers - which in UI programming is a lot of your code - in a point-free style, then I think you'll be letting yourself in for a lot of hassle. > Webpack... What does this even mean? I don't know Python too well, but I assume this is about the ability of Webpack to overload import semantics with non-code dependencies (e.g. importing stylesheets, icons, bits of JSON). Presumably Brython does not support this. You seem quite bullish about the strengths of this project. Exactly what problems do you feel it solves? Assuming that we already have tooling like Webpack and are able to write in either ES2020 or TypeScript, what do you think we gain from writing our UI code in Python?
