@kescherRant nope, haven't tried yet. Will do someday :) maybe 😁
but since it does not compile to ios/osx, I guess it won't be the next language I'll ve learning -
@zeters personal opinion, from personal xp. Indentations' madness, types' madness, pythonisms,.. It takes a while to polish mechanisms to be error-proof [usual oop errors + type errors] and nice to read

mathume956yGolang is great fun with a lot of clean code built in, but always depends on your goals of course

hjk10155876yI like to blame programmers not the language. Though there are a few that are really ugly by nature (like Powershell).
PHP is fine in my opinion. Shell is hell to write. Especially when you need to consistently handle errors or escape stuff (quote hell). -
Kotlin is only fun to read as long as the developer behind the code does not use tons of self declared stuff. Then it's a mess.

@peenoise allright, last I was looking for this I only found that it does not. And someone on dR also said that is does not. Can you share any references?

@peenoise
okay, it does.. I'll have to look into it. Maybe I won't have to learn swift after all!
Thx
p.S. That native interface looks awfully similar to JNI 😁 -
People say rust has difficult and strange syntax, but I find it appealing and readable. Sometimes feel differently once lifetime modifiers are added in though
Python:
* looks nice when written
* painful to write nicely
Perl:
* looks horribly when written
* easy to write
C/C++:
* looks cryptic when written, hard to follow
* difficult to write
Java:
* looks somewhat nice if written well
* easy to write
Shell:
* looks crippled
* a breeze to write
it's like nice'n'easy doesn't even exist..
