I like how kyle simpson explained it. But yes javascript is the language of choice. I used to do PHP but I got sick of $$$$ dollar signs and how ugly it looked. Typescript and java is ugly too me. C# is okay.

I remember back when I was trying to learn Macromedia Flash 8/AS2 so that I could build flash games for my phone. Macromedia Flash actually powered the internet cartoons from the early 2000s, and I actually miss a bunch of them.

@@YeOldeKamikaze I still have one book about Macromedia Flash 5 and onde about Macromedia Flash MX! And countless magazines...

@@YeOldeKamikaze like zombie college :)

Good call, thanks for the correction.

This is the difference between ActionScript 2 and 3, I programmed using both. AS3 was basically ES4, entirely different from AS2. It was a pain for Flash developers to adopt AS3 because most came from a designer background, and AS2 was quite easy to understand, whereas AS3 brought a whole lotta functionalities but was also far more technical, like a regular programming language. AS3 eventually took Flash to new heights, but probably contributed a lot to its final downfall, most notably, security issues.

BracketGuySerious ‘Low level’ means the code interacts with the hardware more closely. The term Low level and high level could really use a renaming as it implies a level of superiority which is actually not the case.

@@paulbrooks5612 Regardless of the levels being in superiority or abstraction they are both effected by time.

@@paulbrooks5612 OP probably didn't take it as any kind of value judgement. it's just that by the classical definition anything that isn't symbolic assembler was high level. C++ to be considered "low-level" could be seen as sign of times of ever increasing abstraction away from hardware.

Don't worry I'm only 18 and I'm still programming in Assembly for fun :) and yeah C++ is like medium-to-high-level imo

@@Mefistofy So wait, you hate javascript but love python? What exactly do you like about python that you do not have in JS? They are no that different really (dynamic types, support for imperative, functional and object oriented programing, everything is an object, garbage collected, wide spread, a lot of libraries for pretty much everything, etc, you can even get rid of the c style brakets syntax using something like coffeescript, so that even the syntax is similar to python)

@@sebastiangudino9377 Perhaps perspective from the opposite side can help. I like JS but I'm not a fan of Python.

Yeah, it's almost as if it was created for making simple status bar scrollers and not proper applications. They should just rip it off the browsers and replace with something faster and bettet such as LuaJIT.

@@UltimatePerfection Indeed, the creator of JavaScript did not anticipate its popularity. But you have WASM now, which enables you to use whatever you like, there's no need to complain.

@@khai96x There is, until JS support gets ripped out of browsers and the developers will have to either use wasm with a proper programming language or make static html pages with only CSS to make them look nice.

Y’all are smoking some good stuff. WASM currently requires JavaScript to bootstrap, and has no direct access to the DOM. JS is fine. It’s the developers who are the issue. If you need a strongly typed language look into TypeScript.
