Interface VS Types

Just watched this interesting little clip from Matt Pocock where he suggests what to use.

@sirber That is what I believe as well.
If one stick's to functional programming in JS/TS then Interfaces, classical inheritance etc is not required.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@sirber I get it, however I always believe every language should be treated on its own strengths & not because it is similar to some other language.

Otherwise it is better to go learn the other one if one likes it so much.

JavaScript was always object based prototypical language.

Treating is like C++ or c# is not the point.

@sirber its actually very simple, the functional approach.
You compose functions rather than inherit.

There is nothing that cannot be solved by composition.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@sirber I disagree.

If you look at Rust that is getting very popular these days, most people follow composition and functional paradigms in it.

Functional and compositional approaches are modern approaches.

@sirber this is a very interesting thread.

@sirber for half of my career I did C# but for almost all of my projects that are either server or client web apps, I only used single level inheritance.

In the end I realised it was not required.

I am not talking about game development. OOP is more prevalent there I think.

@sirber my suggestion is to save your money and buy a new one.

@drsensor @sirber you get the cake for using the best portable computer 😀

@sirber sell your smaller machines to buy a better one.

daanderson, to programming

I decided to buckle down and finally learn .

I love as a language, but I've lost love for the churn, the long build pipelines, frameworks that do the same thing, but better.

Getting instant feedback was what made code magical for me. JS used to have that magic. I could just type code in the browser. Now, with tooling, with build pipelines… it all feels like how people complained about compiler errors: a long slog.

Ironic that it's a compiled lang that brings back the magic.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@daanderson I started learning it a bit, but then lost my way as there are a million other things to keep an eye on in web development world.

I will start again, this time with more patience.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@daanderson even when doing JS/TS I follow loose functional & compositional patterns.

Languages that are embracing this, and show that OOP inheritance based approaches are not the only way to do things fascinate me for some reason.

I find an elegance in simplicity that I like.

nosherwan,
@nosherwan@fosstodon.org avatar

@daanderson I agree with your thoughts.

I have been around for 18 years & I have seen these cycles for too long 😀.

I have used react.js & node.js for years, but feel the same about react.js now.

The community is extremely divided; too many frameworks as well.

I also dont know what is the future.

I'm also on Bluesky now! :😁: @addyosmani.com

Interested to learn how the community is going to differ from both Mastodon & Twitter.

@addyosmani I am also interested in an invite, however early adopters are a bit disappointed.

I have so gotten used to Fediverse now that I doubt walled gardens will attrack me.

Why on earth would I want to leave an open network like Masto to serve the interests of one of the prototypical techbros?

Nah fam, I'm here.

@mttaggart I agree, I am however curious if anything has been learnt by birdshite mistakes.

    Tourists can spot them in European countries as well as places like Thailand, Dubai etc.

    At this rate I'll finish my listen-through of my music library in 12 days total.
