I think whoever first took Javascript and said "this is good but what if it was a compiled language" ruined us all

I'm a webdev I don't wanna wait for "a build"

@dogo @noiob i guess they mostly implied stuff like webpack and such, because IMO TS is 100% worth the "build" time tradeoff anyway

@Eramdam @dogo we're luckily not using webpack, just vite

@noiob @dogo i mean, no matter the bundler, if your codebase is big enough it will get slower anyway :')

@Eramdam @dogo well, my php backend code doesn't need a compile step [when deploying]

@noiob @dogo I mean true but I sure hope you don't have runtime issues caused by mishandling of types :P

Follow

@Eramdam @dogo if it was up to me there would be as little js as possible anyways
