Hey there, fellow devs!
We're at a crossroads with our open-source project, Webcrumbs, and would love your perspective. We're deliberating between JavaScript and TypeScript, and while we're leaning in a direction, we're curious to know the community's thoughts.
Some initial pros and cons that come to mind:
JavaScript:
Pros:
- Widespread adoption and massive community.
- No additional setup required.
- Immediate browser compatibility.
Cons:
- Dynamically typed, which can lead to potential type-related issues.
- Might lack some advanced features for larger applications.
TypeScript:
Pros:
- Static typing can catch potential type-related bugs during compile time.
- Can use all of JS's features plus additional TS ones.
- More structured, which could be beneficial for large projects.
Cons:
- Requires a compilation step.
- Might have a steeper learning curve for newcomers.
Which do you think would be better for Webcrumbs, considering the following features:
- Plugin Platform: Integrate and manage React plugins to extend functionality effortlessly.
- No-Code Admin Panel: Control every aspect of your website from a robust admin interface, no coding needed.
- Fully Customizable: Developers can tailor Webcrumbs according to specific needs.
- Open Source & Free: Webcrumbs is committed to being an open-source, community-driven project.
