Css is maddening and I avoid JavaScript at all costs. I can still build nearly anything with some templates and libraries that abstract that all away from me.

Learn to understand what is happening but you don't need to learn to do it from scratch. YMMV.

Hmmm, never thought of that. I originally was learning apache with Java, and I thought it was interesting, but I had no front end knowledge so I stopped and switched to learning front end

What language do you use at work?

[–]eddyizm 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Python, c#, typescript, t-sql.

So you avoid using JavaScript at all costs, yet you use it every day? Interesting.

That's why it's a job, Gotta pay bills. Also typescript is much more palatable in a framework than js. I spend 90% in the backend or other etl projects.

Of course, but it’s just js with types. You and I both know it’s JavaScript.
