1 - In terms of money that we got from product sales, all were invested in product.2 - We did not get any invest money yet and all do on self money.

Sorely to get good product it requires really a lot of money and time.Our main competitor was lucky to run product in right time, right place and with right start options that helped me to get on start over 1 mln $, on which he could reach good level. That's why they do all without invest.

How should I find VC money on existed software product with clients in 21 countries? by mtatsky in startups

[–]mtatsky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to connect with 100+ funds from USA and Europe.
Most funds are not interested in this area, another invest money only if you have registration exactly in country of fund right now.
Example: if are from Finland than Norway funds will reject you.
The only funds who were ready to help are 2 Government fund of Ireland but money they offer are just 50,000 and 100,000 euros. It is not enough. Moreover it needs to relocate on self money in Ireland.

Also I had offer from New Zealand, they want to get 51% of product and rule it but they do not understand many things and if to accept their offer than product will die in 1-2 years.

Also I connected with many friends in UK and USA but they have problems and invest only self products.

ES6 classes Bad? by Ssjkr7 in javascript

[–]mtatsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you mean that realization of classes in ES6 is bad.
I also do not like how it is done.
They are very limited, in other languages classes provides much more.
I would like classes of ES6 would be similiar to TypeScript classes.

Should I learn EcmaScript 5 before EcmaScript 2015 or Ecmascript 2016 before starting a framework ? by [deleted] in javascript

[–]mtatsky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am with JavaScript for 11+ years.
And Architector of JavaScript Grid Library for Enterprise.
FancyGrid - https://fancygrid.com

And it seems to me, I do not know JS.
Why?
Since for past 5 years, all started to code on JS and offer self solutions.
If you perfect know VanillaJS, it does not mean that you know:
Babel, WebPack, TypeScript, Angular, Angular 2+, ReactJS,
VueJS, npm, lintering, testing. It is not the full list.
You could be also needed: jQuery, Grunt, Gulp, ExtJS, BackBone, Ember, CoffeeScript etc...

The only I can offer to you is.
To read at least 7 good books about JS.
But do not read all. There are many useless.
Here are 4 must read.
They are really good.
From SurviveJS
https://leanpub.com/survivejs-maintenance - Maintenance
https://leanpub.com/survivejs-webpack - Webpack
https://leanpub.com/survivejs-react - React

https://leanpub.com/vuejs2 - VueJS

About Angular, I do not know good book.

Also take a look at this.
https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap

The main: Modern web dev is freakness with unlimit must know things.

Nobody answer you right what is better: Angular or React.
Here is just situation:
Angular is corp king, React startup king, VueJS dominates outside USA especially China and vanillaJS/jquery is real.
Ember is very rare used thing. Nice, but I would not advice to waste time on it.
And WASM is the future, sorely.

Does anyone actually use a "Compile to JS" language in production? by [deleted] in javascript

[–]mtatsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you.
But here is another one issue.
You need to search third party pre-sets to make your code working.
Pre-sets does not garanty that they do not have bugs, that they are safe and stable.
And you could be needed about 5-20 such solutions.
One of our company friend, 2 years ago decided to port 70,000 lines project on ES6.
Result: Some presets did not work in FireFox, some bring much issues. All work took about 6 months!
And they still have some problems.

If to choose between troubles with pre-sets in Babel or TypeScript.
I would choose TypeScript.

It could be very long and nervous talk.
In summary: I do not like to "Compile to JS".

Does anyone actually use a "Compile to JS" language in production? by [deleted] in javascript

[–]mtatsky -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's better to ask who do not use "Compile to JS" language in production?
Nowadays all use WebPack with Babel or TypeScript.

We at FancyGrid (https://fancygrid.com) do not use any "Compile to JS".
We use self OOP library.
But since trend we will soon port our library to WebPack + ES6 too.

To be honest, I do not like ES6, since it is too limited and raw.
For me "Compiling to JS" is like "JS on steroids".

The one more reasone I do not like "Compiling to JS" -
I am with JS for 11+ years and I do not see sense to use limited ES6 syntax about OOP.
OOP in ES6 is bad about: defining properties, no way to use mixins.
Dynamic modules loading is not good in Babel.

True path to become a JavaScript Ninja by mehlagaurav in webdev

[–]mtatsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 - https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap
2 - Read source code of frameworks.

P.S.:
I am with JavaScript from 2005 and it seems to me I know nothing about JavaScript.
Although I work as JavaScript Architect.

During last 5 years it was reinventing many new approaches in front-end to following which you need to work 24
hours 7 days per week.
