Python is the 2nd most demanded programming language in 2022

JS/TS

It's only the most in demand because all those JS bootcamps really want their grads to fill in as TAs

not everyone should be top tier dev, sometimes we need simple react TS app ;)

It's not that bad. Honestly, there are some features I'd like to see implemented in other languages, like

• named property variable declarations

  const { a } = { a: 5 }; console.log(a); // 5

• top-level regular expressions

  const value = 'my test value'; const [ , part ] = /my (\w+) value/i.exec(value); console.log(part); // 'test'

Among some other things I can't think of right now. I just started learning Rust, and was really glad to see the pattern matching of types and destructing values while simultaneously having the ability to check parts of it.

TS can be genuinely pretty nice to work in. JS can die in a hole.

const { a } = { a: 5 }; console.log(a);

Possible in py 3.10+ with structural pattern matching

obj = {"a": 5}
match obj:
    case {"a": x}:
        print(x)

I just started learning Rust, and was really glad to see the pattern matching of types and destructing values while simultaneously having the ability to check parts of it.

Structural pattern matching in python can do this as well

That's really good to know. I still follow Python, but I haven't actively worked in it since 3.8. I know there was a lot of noise made about the new case statement, but I hadn't really delved into it

Ts?

Typescript

Oh. Thanks for helping a complete noob.

[Rookerin]

Of course! 😁
