JavaScript
JavaScript is a weird and wonderful language. I initially thought of JavaScript
as broken and ugly language, but then a former student pointed me toward the wonderful book
JavaScript: The Good Parts. Under
the influence of that book, I really came to enjoy
some of the old school features of JavaScript
(hoisting, function scope, etc).
I still have enough purist in me to
consider things like the class syntactic sugar in JavaScript a bit of an
outrage, but I have come to be more flexible over time.
Specifically, not that I've finally made the jump from my beloved Emacs to Visual Studio,
I find that the editing features I get when using proper TypeScript are transformative
and make it worth the trouble.
