From the comments that have mentioned the efficient programming languages, my guess is there’s a bunch of devs in here that never got past the “c++ is hard!” stage.
The first time I saw an office app launch in my browser, I was both impressed that they got excel to work in a browser and appalled that they wanted excel to work in a browser at the same time. And I’ll admit that it does perform well considering it’s running in a fucking browser, but I’ll still launch the native app any time I actually want to work with a file that’s opened in the browser.
Keep at it, eventually things will click and you might find yourself appreciating the compiler errors and type strictness. Perhaps you’ll even spend time getting rid of warnings even though it will let you run without doing that, because they indicate edge cases that might break your program in difficult to debug ways.
I’m a Ruby on Rails developer that’s been doing this for so many years. I experiment in Crystal from time to time but I haven’t had the time in quite awhile to set aside to learn something new. I have an entire course on Swift bought and paid for but with all the side projects I have going on it’s been tough.
It’s all kinda the same btw. Like you’ll have different sytax and styles, but most languages have variables, loops, conditionals, functions, objects, inheritance, APIs to access OS functions like files and network, etc.

Hell I’m in the “C++ is hard” stage but that doesn’t mean we should just downgrade everything to Electron.

Yeah, time is always the hard part.
