kiki368551yJS, JS, JS
React sucks
Vue sucks
Svelte, htmx, preact, angular rock… of course I’m just kidding they all suck ass.
If you don’t like JS but use frameworks, you hate frameworks, not JS.
Typescript is the worst.
Clojure was fun until it wasn’t.
SQL is love. CSS is a thing to die for.

@Lensflare Perhaps. But very fast in building stable, performant, and scalable enterprise-level solutions.
Design patterns, frameworks, JVM and GC, community -- they add incredible boost to the development process.
And it's actually very pleasant to work with it, as the language and all the surrounding toolset is concise. And there's not too much of it (unlike in js).
The language is strict and clear, obeys the same handful of principles with very few exceptions you're unlikely to encounter any time soon.
Out of all OOP languages I've tried Java makes the most sense.
Perhaps it's a dinosaur. If that's the case, it's an alligator -- a dinosaur which survived and shows no signs of extinction and has a clear place in the whole ecosystem. -
@netikras all that you like about Java you automatically get from Kotlin. But with Kotlin you get so much more.
Why would anyone keep using Java is beyond me.
Also, my comment was a pun on your comment, which I deliberately misunderstood as a request "bash java, go!" 🙃 -
Grumm18521y@nosoup4u Ah yes, that makes sense haha.
I mean, it is possible but only a mad person would do such thing :D -
Grumm18521y@Lensflare You like to keep stuff for yourselfs right ? All those poor androids that crave after your apps... -
@kiki hmm with respect I've built big UI with vanilla js and something like Vue I find quite nice. Also my old codes started looking like component frameworks anyway.
React is shit. Complex refresh, lifecycle. Just uncalled for. -
@retoor ha nice to hear we just got an ok to use veutify for a new project, literally yesterday. Looking forward to it.

galena74531yI might be an oddball with this:
Either Rust or Zig WASM with C# and MongoDb backend.

Fave languages and frameworks, go!
As of now for me, loving these:
PHP8 and Laravel with Livewire*, Django5.1, MariaDB. PHP must stand for PrettyHeckinPCoolasFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU
*after using React and Vue for quite a while, I've concluded that the best front end is back end. And I like Postgres, I just find that MySQL is fine for most things.
random
php rules
postgres is hard for my small mind
python rules
