The key word in your post is "familiar". You want it to be familiar. There's no need to overstep that and make vague judgements of simplicity and complexity.

- deltasevennine 4y agoNo. Disagree. His post has a good point, and nowhere in it does he mention "familiarity." He obviously likes Typescript, but beyond that his post has a point.
- frou_dh 4y agoDon't know what to tell you. Two-thirds of the post are about subjective comfy syntax. And they did use the word familiar, which is why I quoted it.
- grumblingdev 4y agoIt's the most familiar to the most amount of programmers. Despite maybe Python, but that doesn't target the web so it's not ideal. I just don't see a new language being created that can be a systems language, and is also the language of choice for web apps, etc. TS already targets everything, except native (although there is NativeScript and AssemblyScript and a TypeScript LLVM compiler laying around). What I want is one syntax to target every platform, and when I click run, I can step through the code and it doesn't matter if it's running native or JIT.
