Fun stuff, but again, doesn't come with any tools. Microsoft Typescript is much better on that matter.
What javascript universe needs right now is not some more of syntactic sugar clusterfuck followed by debugging nightmare, but real tools, static code analysis. I don't want to waste my precious time dealing with closure compiler+scala something combo.
It's fun from programmers POV, but still it won't make me pay my bills!
reality check, please
- chc 13y agoHave you looked into the tools and amenability of Scala to static analysis and found them lacking? Also, it seems a bit odd to call Scala "syntactic sugar". It's a pretty unique language in its own right.
- fhd2 13y agoI suggest you RTFA, some highlights regarding your fears: - Integrated with sbt (including support for dependency management and incremental compilation) - Can be used with your favorite IDE for Scala - Generates Source Maps for a smooth debugging experience (step through your Scala code from within your browser supporting source maps)
- anotherfadjs 13y agoScala is outside of reality, it's academic diarrhea. It's nothing but syntactic sugar (more like salt) for Java's async functionality and we all know that anything made from shit is expected to be shit.
