"What if we used JS as a backend language?"
SMACK
Somewhere in an alternate universe, there's a better timeline.
- wruza 3y agoWhat’s in js that makes it different from any other language? Any other language would likely bend into <what you mean by that> form with enough users coming to it from the “web” direction. It’s just a law of big numbers.
- sgarland 3y agoCompared to other high-level languages, nothing, really. I actually really like JS for its intended purpose (or just as a way to learn programming). But I also think it’s been permanently tainted due to a constantly shifting ecosystem that can’t settle down, and a user community that is constantly chasing new shiny things.
