Visual Basic shares a fundamental truth with Internet Explorer: popular does not imply good.
- kitd 4y agoWell, except that VB didn't become popular simply by being shipped by default on millions of Windows desktops. It earned it's popularity by scratching a huge itch (at the time).
- bazoom42 4y agoVB was great though. Maybe the syntax was a bit clunky, but the overall developer experience was far ahead of other languages. Integrated debugger, edit-and-continue, code completion etc.
