For most people JavaScript hate is a meme. They have either never built a bit project in it (or at least not since the language improved).
Sure it has its quirks, but with modern tooling, the idea that you can't build good software in JS is ridiculous.
- quickthrower2 5y agoI agree but I’d much rather use Typescript for bigger projects. Admittedly this could be an old-dog brain thing: I’m used to typed languages. I feel with pure js you’d need more test coverage and better comments. My experience on larger js code bases it’s hard to know what to pass into a function “oh now I’ve read all the code I see you want an object with a couple of promises and a number” can be bad for productivity. But I imagine in disciplined hands JS can scale without static type safety.
