It seems once a year somebody writes a library to do this. It never takes off, because the main difficulty in developing web applications is not “learning JavaScript“.
I have 3 questions for the team. Who is the target audience exactly? How is this different from Anvil, Toga, Streamlit or the previous 36 attempts? And if learning JavaScript is too difficult, what exactly makes shoving the DOM API into another language easier? You still need to learn all the same things but now there’s about 9 orders of magnitude less working examples to copy from.
If it’s like my 2019 polo, a long (30sec or so) press on the power button on the infotainment console will reboot it.
But yeah, just traded that car in for a Mercedes, and the infotainment is night and day. I basically don’t use CarPlay anymore because the built in stuff actually works better.
While I agree with you the grandparent was unnecessarily patronizing, they do have a point. “Built-in functions” is the first chapter of the documentation following the introduction, there’s no way to miss it. If you don’t even skim the introductory documentation, I’m not exactly sure what you expect to happen. Python is not Ruby nor is it Java, and it predates both. Why would it follow the idioms of those languages?
I guess being better than a random third-world country (yes, that’s what median means here) is seen as a great accomplishment? Not sure why you would choose to comment this, it’s like a grown adult bragging about being able to beat up a toddler.
