I'm asking you this as I believe it will help me in the future. Is having the knowledge about the tool better that having the skills to solve a set of problems? If I really want a position within a specific company (for whatever reason) but they use a language with which I haven't worked before but am willing to learn (and definitely have the learning skills for that!), would I be in a disadvantage with respect to another candidate, one that has extensive knowledge about the language (and ecosystem), even if I would have experience in the "field of the app being built"?
