Is jQuery still the go-to JS helper library? (programming.dev)
 

It's been awhile since I did any frontend work. Is there something that has taken jQuery's place?

Just scanning through the docs and YouTube, it doesn't seem to do anything that I can't easily do with Go. What am I missing?

I've wanted to have an excuse to learn Elixir for a couple years now. It seems fascinating to me, but I just can't get started.

A terrifying number of people think like that.

What bucket of that are you in? There are a lot of different reasons people take your position.

Go. Nothing strikes a balance of ease and performance like go

Addon for Function Highlighting in c/vscode@programming.dev
[–] MagnoliaMayhem@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[sadface]

or build one yourself? I've never built an extension for VS Code. May be worthwhile, if it isn't too difficult. For now, I'm just using big comments to deliminate my functions. Encourages good comment habits as a side-effect, so I'm not too upset.

Addon for Function Highlighting (programming.dev)
 

Maybe this is just an issue with my inability to format code effectively or maybe I'm just undiagnosed dyslexic (Open Dyslexic really does help me) but I have issues with my functions running together when I'm writing for more than five minutes. Is there an addon for VS Code that would highlight the background of my function bodies with different colors? I know that this is oddly specific, but I think this would really help. If it's language specific, I spend most of my time writing Go.
