I will say tho now that we're talking, looking at some code now that doesn't use type inference looks funny. Like, why type all the types? 🙃

I honestly have no idea but that sounds right. Something random reminded me today so decided to ask twitter. I've never investigated.

I'm in a tough spot. Personally I think it's redundant to declare types when I could just let the compiler do its thing.

I also work with a dev that prefers declaring types because it's easier to glance at code and instantly know what types you're working with

Nope. I prefer it, but seems like the current trend is declaring types and decreasing compile time. I haven't measured myself though*

npm users write ruby, python, Java, Go, C, and every other language you can think of. npm is how you put websites together.

Perception lags reality by years. npm is not primarily a tool for node developers. 80% of npm's users are front-end JS developers.

Things I miss most in JavaScript after having used Swift for a while: Immutability, types, enums, structs, pattern matching, default params

JavaScript. Makes async code look synchronous. I think they borrowed it from c#
