The year is 2021.

People argue for a toolchain that takes a static language, compiles it to a dynamic one, then runs it with an interpreter on the server side.

The gen z people I know think webdev is a joke. They’re off playing with unreal engine blueprints and shaders and stuff.

TS on the serverside is an abomination. Just learn a real language like Go or hey Java.

The scripting languages of the future I see more in things like Unreal Blueprints.

Meanwhile webdevs reinvent things from 40 years ago and struggle to build 2D form apps.

It seems to me that there is a divide of angular typescript apps that are about 3-5 years old and a new wave of react flow apps. Wonder what the stats are.

Do you have any large typescript projects?
