“React will never die, just like jQuery”. Lol.

TypeScript is like having a glass of ice cold water in hell.

VanillaJS/web standards all the way. I love being able ship something knowing exactly what’s going to end up in the browser. I really don’t get the react cargo cult fad, and when it finally dies it won’t be too soon.

So if people are handed coolaid and are stupid enough to drink it there should be no burden of responsibility placed on the community? No regulation banning the handing out of said coolaid? I don’t want to live in such a society. I think mo

Firstly, closed source would likely be the antithetical counterpoint to GPL. I refuse to even call it copyleft, because that term is a purity test. I’m a leftist and I BSD/MIT my work so that others may benefit from it. If it’s valuabl

Every bit this. How about the freedom to ship something without having an ideological position on when/how it links against other code.

Google getting in the space just as another raise was in train as well as a problem domain that required fast, asynchronous and low latency communication but was written in unoptimised single threaded Ruby.

No, as a side project, make a browser and free yourself from the browser monopoly.

ASP.NET WebForms did this and it was horrible.

Predictable finalisation. To build say, an operating system, you need to know exactly when memory is freed. If you don’t know this at a fundamental level, how can you schedule work? This IMO is fundamentally why no one has built a modern OS

I’m finally learning how to think in triangles. After that, maybe shaders.

What would be great is a system like this, but with reference counting instead. If that existed, I’d immediately jump ship.

The usage of browser history for this page is un-ironically a nightmare.

From the article: “As it turns out, “don’t break the Web” is the number one design principle for HTML, CSS, JavaScript…”. So window.alert() is safe for all time? More breathtaking hypocrisy from Google.

More proprietary software treating their users like criminals as the default.

Interesting no one here is discussing “Jakt”, which looks very similar in style and approach. Jakt is the language attempted by the SerenityOS team, which itself dispels the notion you can’t building something of substance from scratch with

How/why is this different to MAUI?

SwiftUI is an intermediate step in this transition. Expect the UIKit/AppKit bits to eventually disappear.
