My biggest transition to being comfortable with it was to find a happy place in terms of editing. After years of C/C++ it was not easy to be picking fragments of code out of DOM bellyfluff lint. So how do you use javascript dev tools and what don't you like about them I guess?
My golang program was complete in like 10min, but javascript program took 2 hrs. I dont know if its just me, but i tend to make small errors while programing, like making sure a variable is not undefined and stuff. Even though my logic was perfect its just very difficult to debug algorithms in javascript, let alone any lint for ide thats reliable.
the golang compiler is really good at catching errors, and makes programing more fun for me atleaset
