I'm honestly surprised that someone that spends enough time on the internet to end up on lemmy doesn't know about ACAB.

The only reason I would switch is if the projects I contribute too would switch. I personally don't care.

A lot of those AAA unreal games are plagued woth performance issues and shader stutter on PC. Unreal has a lpt of good in there, but it's not all good. Nanite will only contribute in making games even larger than they already are.

Are we ready for javascript without a build step on the front end in 2023? in c/programming@programming.dev

I mean, I get what you're saying but with rust all that js code is auto generated and you can make a full app without writing a single line of js yourself.

If you want type safety and no build step you do like svelte did and use jsdoc instead. You can run the typescript type checker on those annotations so if you care about not having a build step you can still have type safety.

That's actually a myth and real world performance isn't affected by this. See this video from leptos creator which is one of the more popular wasm ui framework https://youtu.be/4KtotxNAwME?si=D_vWV1LPQI-C9j8G
