What if you could combine elements of Python with elements of Javascript?

I present GDScript:
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/...

So far I am really liking this engine.

All glory to the godots

Finally, the power of a mediocre scripting language with the bad design of another

@12bitfloat fuck me that was brütal

GDScript is class-based, which is a significant difference from other loosely typed languages.

@Lor-inc Isn't Python also class based?

@12bitfloat
I supports typed in recent versions, traditionally no

@SortOfTested Does that mean Python is moving up because it is getting some class?

I don't mind either Python or Javascript (less enthusiastic about JS though). I think the description of GDScript is interesting from a design perspective. They tried LUA and tried Python and others. Found them lacking and created something purpose built. Godot also supports C# for scripting I think. The docs for the engine are really good too.

@Demolishun
It just means it's getting marginal type safety, so you can compile time check things. ☺️

@12bitfloat What constitutes bad design? I mean both Python and JS work for the purposes they were built. I mean they were not designed to tackle the same problems that C++ and Rust were designed to tackle.
