My relationship with JavaScript is more like an abusive relationship that I can't escape from because it pays all the bills.
It’s worth going hungry in the dark. Lawyer up and hit the gym. JS doesn’t deserve you.
And a Python developer is born!
Source: I moved on from an abusive relationship with JavaScript to a healthy not-at-all-controlling equal partner relationship with Python. And four spaces makes perfect sense, once I really considered Python's point of view...
You don’t have to go from crazy to slightly less crazy. You could try living that lean compiled life.
We can go leaner. Why use a compiler when an assembler is all you need?
Good point. Why stop there?

These days that's still python
Strong types are really just healthy, clearly defined boundaries
You just described my life. JS is hell.
You guys are using typescript right? .... right?
Yes. However, The same cannot be said for every other dev on the project.
Typescript helps a lot but JS still lacks a lot of the functionality, and especially the tooling, available in other frameworks.
Going from ASP.Net Core to NestJS is like digging holes with a shovel instead of a backhoe. It feels like a huge downgrade. And then half your time is spent dealing with the incredibly finicky dev environment.
I am not impressed.
Interesting! I have built several projects entirely in TS or with react/next frontends and I enjoy the DX a lot now that I have the experience with the overwhelming breadth of options out there. It was very frustrating and overwhelming for me at first though. I found Dockerizing to help with consistency and finickiness.
Just curious, what are you missing most from asp.net core?
Try typescript
