Such a viewpoint would be ignorant of the distinction between a language and an API.

- Iftheshoefits 13y agoYes, that's rather the parent's point, I think.
- TheZenPsycho 13y agoexcept "many of the frameworks that exist for it hide or transform enough of the "native" implementation details as to be different languages. Or supersets of it" is wrong. It's all still javascript. Just.. plain.. javascript. with a different api/library.
- Iftheshoefits 13y agoI don't think you understood what I wrote. And I'll leave it at that.
- TheZenPsycho 13y agois there an alternative interpretation? you appear to be saying that a library can make javascript into a new or superset language. Are you saying something different?
