A programming lanaguage is only a relatively small aspect of making software. The eco-system is far more important, i.e. frameworks, libraries, tooling, etc. Personally, the majority of my day-today work is TypeScript/NodeJS and the reason I don't use C# is that I just don't want to be stuck in Microsofts eco-system.
- smt88 4y agoAs someone who has only built Node/TypeScript or .NET APIs for the past few years, I can say that the ecosystem of .NET is dramatically better than Node. Everything works and there's a high quality library for everything. The only thing I miss is the phenomenal structural typing of TypeScript. That by itself is enough to tempt me to use Node sometimes. So I guess I disagree with everything you said, in the end :)
