Announcing TypeScript 3.1
Is TypeScript worth learning? I know that is a loaded question, but I need to ask it anyway.I am super frustrated with lack of screens for python. I don't want to pigeon hole into an ecosystem where I am limited to a certain platform like Java/Kotlin or even (dare I say) Swift (no real web, still need JS). As a single developer, mostly hobby, I want options for all the things!!!I have been migrating my Python scraping to JavaScript with node, puppeteer, and it has been quite illuminating, and the speed is ridiculously better. Furthermore, I can easily turn my scrape into a desktop app with electron with an api that is consumed by a mobile app with react-native. Long story short, I can now think about making some of my Python ideas into cross platform desktop apps with mobile versions as well. Not super easy with Python.The question is would TypeScript be even better for a long term bet?
