macOS

1. Install Homebrew

2. Brew Install Git

3. Brew Install Emacs

4. Git Clone dotfiles

5. cd ./dotfiles && bootstrap.sh

This gives me my spacemacs config and all the MLPA packages, java, clojure, elixir, python, and a few others.

but Javascript

Swift is #6 on that list, TypeScript is #4.

This was meant to highlight that Swift developers don't seem unhappy with the language

Swift is evolving slowly, but JavaScript is making very quick progress through TC39 during the same time span that Swift was alive.

I'm not sure this is a bad thing

Swift has ambiguous and biased leadership but JavaScript has a well defined and established committee with members from major competitors who have common interest in the language succeeding.

I think this is a bit biased. Have you read Swift's Community Guidelines? https://swift.org/community/#communication

I don't really have a dog in this fight and would love some input from a Swift developer.

I still claim that introducing JavaScript is not the solution.

Swift developers seem to like Swift, it ranks 6th in most loved language this year (https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2018/#technology).

I really hate that JS seems to be the go-to "alternative" for everything.
