šŸ§  Weekly topicā„¢: Programming languages/frameworks YOU know!

Hey everyone, sorry for the late post. I kind of got busy with some stuff and I meant to post it on tuesday but I forgot, so itā€™s here today. Kind of like last week, this topic was requested by @UnsignedArduino.

This weekā€™s (2023-06-25T22:00:00Zā†’2023-07-01T22:00:00Z) topic is

:man_technologist: Which programming languages and frameworks are you familiar with?

For me, it would be

  • Python (3.x) - very thorough knowledge
    • Django, a web framework based on Python
  • HTML + JavaScript + CSS for web development
  • TypeScript (MakeCode and in general)
  • Currently learning SvelteKit, Tailwind CSS and Node.JS

I also understand C and C++ syntax, but thatā€™s pretty general
Extra stuff: I can write RegEx really well, I also know git commands which is super useful

What about you guys?

Hmm, a tough one!

  • Iā€™m fluent in HTML + JavaScript + CSS for websites too! Although my graphic design isā€¦ poor XD
  • While technically I am fluent in JavaScript that isnā€™t for website developmentā€¦ my knowledge is 5 years old and I was mostly only able to retain the stuff I needed for websites.
  • I am working on learning C++, and might start Python or Roblox scripting sometime!

Iā€™m fairly well versed in:

  • Python
  • C/C++
    • Usually using PlatformIO plus Arduino framework.
  • TypeScript (and therefore JavaScript by extension?)
    • Mostly NextJS for web development.
    • p5.js as well.

Iā€™ve tried:

  • Java (it was for AP CS A :grimacing:)
  • The :crab: language. Rust lol

Absolute chad.

Iā€™m lazy and use Bootstrap. I know @richard loves CSS frameworks like Bootstrap. /j

Nothing, practicallyā€¦

The only way I know how to code (so far) is with blocks, and let me tell you, I am TERRIBLE at thatā€¦

  • JS (Trying to learn it! I can do a cool hello world program with it)
  • MielScript (My custom programming language)
  • b l o c k (Makecode)
  • b l o c k (Scratched my DS liteā€™s screen :c)
  • quite not much more!

I think he might be refering to a ā€œmockupā€ scripting language, but who knows, maybe the guy really made a whole real working language! If thatā€™s so, could we get a sample of the syntax?

Iā€™m OK at Html and Fluent in Makecode Typescript. Funny thing is I barely use those two and just code in blocks.

Something others have said too, I just forgot since I assumed it was just kind of a given: Yes, I know blocks as well - this is MakeCode after all :joy:

Yes, the syntax is pretty logic-based as it has the ā€œdb.section.actionā€ format.

The following is a Hello World program in MielScript.

mscript.onstart {
 mscript.sys.importdb('ms-text')
 mstext.text.print('Hello, World!')
 }

As you might see, itā€™s relatively simple.
