Whatever about operating systems not all frameworks were created equal. Consider pygame vs unity for a 3D game. Unity is clearly the most appropriate choice in this situation. It would perform better and require less dev time.

In fact even with operating systems there are situations where there is a clear best choice. e.g Linux for embedded systems.

Outside of a specific context/application/technical challenge though there is no use arguing which is intrinsicly better...

Although it won't stop me trying. ALL HAIL REACT the chosen framework has come *mutters a prayer to Zuckerberg*

But seriously the more info about your team, your challenge, your scope and time frame you have the more relevant these questions about tech stack become.

What laptop? :)

Define weird

When I got my pebble watch I made two player pong for it in C.

I think pong is a good way to learn new languages / frameworks because the game itself is simple.

We need to hire N more people from minority group(s) X.

No you need to hire programmers regardless of their gender or ethnicity. Having a minority quota is discrimination in itself and gives the person hired imposter syndrome because they cannot be sure they were hired for their skill or just as a pawn in a political agenda.

What we want is equal opportunity not equal outcome.

Ouch that coffee must buuuurn

@tahnik I'm intrigued, do tell.

Angular is owned by Google so in fact Google is the top contributor. Still never thought I would see Microsoft on this list 2 or 3 years ago though.

@AshMountDigger Just a personal preference or does Typescript have the edge?

@AshMountDigger what about Flow?

On the windowsill.

I actually quite like chiclet keys. Beats rubber dome any day.

If I got this I would also need a kilogram of coffee to get me up for work in the morning after sleeping 2 hours.

Preach

Transpiling and using sourcemaps is a pain but would you really rather spend the day worrying about JS compatibility issues?
