...it's just another tool in the programmers toolbox? Right tool for the job etc... Also for anything non-trivial just use Typescript which is actually a decent language.
- xigoi 8mo agoIt’s not the right tool for the job if, for example, you need a tuple-indexed hashmap, which I needed for a web app recently. TypeScript does not help, it’s just a layer on top. Also I hate the inconsistent syntax and the footguns inherited from C, such as fallthrough in switch statements.
