Ridiculous. If anything, the time of the ubiquitous JS might be over when anyone can generate native UI without electron.

- purplemoonx 2mo agoHas been trivial to do for 10+ years. Next you’re gonna say I need RN or Expo to write JS for iOS. JS ecosystem = capitalism, websites, payments Python = math, language, theory
- grim_io 2mo agoHow did all of the capitalism get to be JavaScript? Let's keep ourselves a bit grounded. No, payments certainly don't run on JavaScript, unless all you know about payment systems are the web frontends.
- purplemoonx 2mo agoIf you knew anything about payment systems, you'd know you get a nonce or receiptID and it is a front-end only thing. You don't do the backend banking yourself. Maybe your backend sends an email, or saves the receipt, but that's peripheral. The entire Payments flow is front-end capture, then the service doing all the actual backend payment part. It's a black box from your end and you can decide to do it entirely front-end if you wanted. There's no way around it.
