Right now I am crying trying to make an http request in plain c++

😅😂😂😂

I'm pretty good at JavaScript, been working with it for years. I've limited it down to only using functions (no classes), constants (no let's no vars). Building a frontend or some services works well at the end of the day. Worst thing that I hate is setting up a project and all the tools around it. Out of my ignorance, cause I dont know so good any other language. Why are people hating js?

What I hate is exactly what you mentioned. There's a whole ecosystem of bad frameworks and your job is to find the least bad one. For me it's react/typescript/webpack etc. it took me so long to hack it together. I think I may have actually cried at one point.

JavaScript is pretty good for the web. I think it’s the biggest and most well supported language when it comes to browsers and the Internet. I’d consider it a necessary language to learn if you want to build something for the web.

Oh, yes. Nobody loves that. But these days TSC/esbuild are working decently. And nextjs took away a lot of this pain as well for the frontends

So glad it's not just me. I've programmed for decades, and the only programming language that I can remember making me legit feel like shedding tears and giving up is JavaScript.

😂😂😂

God i hate javascript, this bastard child of a lang that has taken over the web and now im being made to deal with it 😂😂😂😅
