What is the difference between a "real language" and "compiled down to JavaScript"? Like, every language is either interpreted or compiles down to something else. I'm not clear on what the real distinction is here. Are ClojureScript, Dart and Scala not real languages since they compile to JavaScript?
- drivingmenuts 13y ago"Real" is probably the wrong term, chosen too quickly. Byte-code compatible is probably a better descriptor.
