Rust? eww 🤮. Someone should rewrite it in Java(!)
I heard there’s an improved version around, I think they call it JavaScript? Its name is longer so it stands to reason that it should be much better!
So I know thats a joke but…
With Java 11’s inclusion of ‘var’ I have successfully copied JavaScript code into Java without needing to change anything.
I judge the direction Java is going in
Var actually goes hard in Java ngl
No sorry, I don’t know Java so I can’t easily contribute. There are so many people like me!!! We should write it in python so we can reach a wider audience of contributors. From 13 year olds, career and hobby devs, and academia! Python has many mature frameworks and lots of developers who use them. Another implementation is a great idea!
Let’s rewrite whole Debian Operating system in Python. I mean everything from Kernel, drivers etc all the way to user apps like browser, games, multimedia players etc.
… That also means figuring out how to get python to bootstrap itself. I’m in, just because I want to see how slow it would be lol
That’s called Piefed. Golang and Ruby are still missing though. Maybe there could even be an implementation in C.
you meant ‘they should rewrite it in python’ right?
