| Glad to see tooling in my native language. I don’t want to touch TypeScript stuff with a ten foot pole, but sadly it seems to be the lingua franca for agentic tools. The one thing that would keep me from making the jump is CC’s auto mode. |

| > I don’t want to touch TypeScript stuff with a ten foot pole Why not? Is it because you need to change the code? |

| ▲ | cedws 17 hours ago | parent [-] | | No, I’m just extremely averse to anything to do with JS/TS. The amount of bloat is insane and there’s a new supply chain attack every day at this point. Definition of a tire fire. | | |
| ▲ | JaggerJo 17 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Yup - IMO it’s just the wrong tool for the job. | |

| What's wrong with typescript? I was thinking of getting into it. |

You can take measures to lower the pain of being in a toxically incompetent package space devolving faster than you can type commands. |
