Refusing rust and wasm is a signal you don’t care about code quality or security
See? You can keep playing that game all the way down to the most onerous language
Actually, if you really care about quality and types on the front end rust+wasm is not a bad idea 🤔
Now that I've typed that and read it back, were people using TypeScript for anything other than front-end web dev?
I wrote some TypeScript modules to process a bunch of documentation in markdown to a ton of output formats via pandoc + latex.
No real reason for it, except that I was able to start with the export module of a node-based thing written in JavaScript and iterate from there until I had a working system in CI/CD.
That's actually pretty neat!
