With webassembly you can do that in any language. Using blazor, c#, rn and it's not bad at all. That said, I really like js as long as I'm not having to collaborate, it's extremely expressive and you can just stick to the subset of it that makes sense
yeah but what if the language worked and wasn't a pile of bolted together garbage from when one dude wrote a toy language in 2 weeks then Microsoft reverse-engineered it and left the bugs in
Point being, please don't put garbage in the backend just because you're fluent in said garbage, for the sake of your backend and ops/infra/reliability engineers
I'm sorry javascript happens to you on the reg but don't inflict it on others
Ahh gotcha! Sorry if I came off a little hostile, I'm in the middle of begging the developers at work to not write any more nodejs apps because they're all dumpster fires that no one maintains (making them my problem, and I really fucking hate javascript)
I like Ruby best for web servers without major performance requirements, and for general-purpose utilities and scripts. For high-performance webservers I like Clojure, Java is boring and a bloated but ultimately fine. Super curious about Rust and Elixir, but won't use them for anything that isn't toy-project shaped until they have more robust tooling and community support
Full web stack in one language :marx-goth:
lel that’s what the hexbear devs tried to do.

I'm not a developer (yet?). What's your preferred backend language? C#? Python? Rust? Java?

C# is very pleasant
