Looks great on first look, but on closer inspection saw that it's written in pure JavaScript (0% TypeScript) + Bash. Honestly makes me a bit worried about security. Now, I'm not so thrilled about it anymore...
- vorpalhex 4y agoI think you are misunderstanding something about security or typescript...
- smcleod 4y agoYeah... JS/node/electron - I could do with far less of these things in my life, not more - especially when it comes to security vulnerabilities.
- wmf 4y agoIt's mostly a Web UI for Docker Compose so I'm not sure what else it would be written in.
- junon 4y agoJudging the security of an application based on its use of typescript is like when people judge the intelligence of a person depending on if they have an English or an American accent.
- gyulai 4y agoWhile we're doing analogies: I don't think it's like judging someone's intelligence from their accent. It's more like betting (or not) on the Jamaican bobsleigh team for an olympic medal. -- Certain programming languages invite buggy code more than others. Certain countries are a better environment than others for winter sports.
- junon 4y agoI disagree entirely with this assertion.
