...yeah, it's got its warts (see wtfjs.com), but it's built on a very solid foundation. It does get a bad rap because of the poor (and inconsistent) design of the DOM, but if you play within its rules it can be very expressive and powerful.
- zbuc 15y agoWell, that was a language inconsistency, not an issue with the DOM. I like working with JS but I don't know why the two operands aren't commutative in my example. The DOM is a headache but luckily smart people have made plenty of libraries to abstract that away. What we're left with is a language with a very expressive and powerful core like you said, but there are still some oddities.
