    If you need a desktop app go with rust, zig or swift depending on your platform

    If you need a web app for CRUD, avoid frameworks, typescript, tailwind, nothing, just bare-naked node/html/css/js

    If you need games in the browser or stuff where every byte needs optimization go with WASM

    A programmer's life has become simpler
