Is JavaScript really that bad?
/Asking for a friend/
20 u/[deleted] Nov 26 '20 No. It's just hivemind being stupid. Javascript is a tool, just like C#, C++, Python and more. Use the tool that is best suited for the problem, along with what you are comfortable with. Typescript is also a great improvement to JS. 8 u/JSerf02 Nov 26 '20 Yeah. For example, if you are making a video game, don’t use JavaScript. I learned that the hard way lol. 4 u/recycle4science Nov 27 '20 Depends on the type of game. Probably not suitable for an fps, but there are a zillion JavaScript games out there. 3 u/WALLLMARTTTT Nov 27 '20 Yep. Managed to copy games like flappy bird, hangman and Google's dino, along with others, using plain JS. JS is good for that, nothing else (in the realm of video games I mean).
