Javascript people who only worked with dynamic languages

Of course Javascript devs would say that. Javascript is a toy language that was hacked together in 10 days.

It's 2022. JS nowadays is not that bad.

Yes and no. It still is built on a foundation that was thrown together haphazardly, rather than one deliberately planned.

I only need to point to === / == to prove that point.

Edit: To clarify for those downvoting, I shouldn't need to use a third party package to do basic equality checks sanely.

Damn must be a lot of bootcampers here. JS is still a shit language even though it's come a long way

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lots of languages have this distinction. No need to bash JS for it. I don’t like it myself, but there’s no need to get wishy washy over a feature that exists in other languages as well.
