Oh, right, #airbnb have that whole help-people-find-rentals/hotels side to their business. I tend to think of them primarily as a company that makes a pretty good style guide. https://github.com/airbnb/javascript

I'm still really struggling to debug my #Mastodon oauth #JavaScript code. I've cut the non-essential bits—it's now down to 74 SLOC; it seems like I'm requesting a token in exactly the way the docs describe.

If anyone can offer a tip, I'd really appreciate it!

@gcupc @nolan I hate to bother y'all with this, but I was modeling the oauth flow on #pinafore/#brutaldon, so I know y'all could help me with this if you have a second.

@blaubachn

That's actually not the issue. Adding, removing, or modifying the *properties* of a #javascript object is fine for `const` variables—their not immutable, they just can't be reassigned. (Which took me a bit to remember/understand)

(Just to be sure, though, I tested with that changed and it made no difference. Thanks for the thought!)

@kev Another vote for #javascript. It's gotten much better in the past few years; many (not all) of the issues people have with it have now been fixed. And, after all the work browser vendors have put into optimizing its interpreter, it's *really* fast (for an interpretated language, I mean).

It's also very flexible in terms of paradigm: it supports functional programming or #OOP pretty well.

Plus, it's a C-family language, so it would make it easier to learn C/C++/Rust/go/etc. one day.

Programming/markup languages I know passably well:
- #C
- #bash
- #vimscript
- #JavaScript
- #HTML
- #CSS
- (various templating languages, e.g. #twig, #jinja2, #handlebars)

Programming languages for the code I've had accepted in open-source pull requests in the last month:
- #Rust
- #Python

Something seems very wrong with this picture.

Yeah, and I'm sure my preference for camelCase has something to do with early exposure to #javaScript

After some thought, I oppose the absolutist anti #javascript view in The Web I Want[0]

Look, my website loads 0 JS and 4.3 KB total[1]; I *get* the appeal of blazing speed & minimal data transfer. I *love* it.

*Your* post, conversely, loads 1,760 KB of JavaScript. But I don't think you're a hypocrite. No, I think that you had some reason for publishing on dev.to—likely a good one. You decided *something* was worth the weight of that JS.
