This needs a "Heard of it and don't have an opinion" option.
I agree. It's almost like there's a new JS fad every month and it's almost impossible to have an informed opinion on each of them.
That would be the "not interested" option, if you're not actively interested in learning it. There's not time for everything.
The other one I wanted was “Heard of it, but it's not relevant to my current projects” – “want to learn” overstated my level of interest in some cases.
Yeah same. Locally offline DBs that seamlessly sync to remote DBs and optimistically respond are cool, but not relevant to what I do now.
I think I got all of them right, but frustrating that it doesn't let you know at the end.
It is a survey, the results will be posted later on. If you are interested, you can view the results from last year while you wait. Interesting to see how some of the community feels towards certain ideas.
haha :)
ES5 and ES6/2015 options, but no ES8/2017? My code is requires 'await' and is significantly better for doing so.
Since it covers SASS/CSS too, would be interested in % of people using grid or flexbox.
Took it, always mind-boggling how many new flavors and frameworks are coming out. Can't keep up! clojurescript, Typescript and vanilla js for me, all day long. Want to get into Elm also.
Any survey like this should include at least one fake framework name to see which percentage of respondents aren't really reading the questions — but they'd probably have to preregister it on NPM to avoid someone publishing it as a joke.
Ironically this survey does not work when javascript is disabled :)
It'd be ironic if it didn't work when JavaScript was enabled — this seems pretty on-brand. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
