Anders Hejlsberg, who designed C#, is now leading Typescript development. Why would I not join him at the frontiers of his creative and intellectual energies?

Go is a nice language, but it's not expressive the way typescript can be. I'm not convinced, either, that coroutines are all that snazzy an abstraction at the application level.

Kotlin and Scala too if you want the same type of strong type system as TypeScript

Lipstick on Java with vendor lock in or another lipstick on Java made by and for academics, tough choice.

coded in scala for over a decade. i am glad i dont have to use it anymore. maybe i am just too stupid for it, never understood the point of all that.

No type system is as strong as TypeScript — certainly not Kotlin.

You're welcome to port anything over to those languages. LLMs can do it in a couple of days at most.

Tell me next time Codex app would be rewritten to native stack scross all platforms: swiftui, winui, etc.

Should be easy, yeah?

Not mentioning Java means we are already on the same wavelength.

I love C# too.

ADK comes in Go, Java, Python, and TS

Same framework, multiple languages, let people decide their preference while having consistency and interoperability

One is stuck in 80s and another doesn’t even have official open source debugger, are you serious?

C# is still getting yearly updates and is a joy to work with really.
