      Unfortunately there's a shit ton that can't be done without JavaScript.

          No Typescript either I’m afraid, all JS is :haram:. If we must use a Brendan Eich language, we’re going back to the embedded Scheme he implemented before Netscape said “make it look like Java”.

            Oh we could definitely do with switching to just about any other language. WebAssembly seems interesting but AFAIK it still requires a JS call to initialize on a page.

            But we need a programming/scripting language.

          That would definitely be a major improvement.

          AFAIK upcoming ECMAScript specifications are adding TypeScript features so that's a good first step.

          Some native way to make reactive pages with html templating would be very nice.
