Heyy, I’m learning programming and trying to choose a focus, I saw you can make web/backend w node, desktop (bloatware but discord uses it so if it works it works), games (not AAA and not optimized for performance but it shouldn’t matter for indie too much) Is there anything that compares? I wanna focus on one thing instead of spreading myself over a ton of languages, I do feel js is interesting for this, but I’m just starting out, so looking to hear some thoughts of people more familiar with programming.
“When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
mhmm! that’s the basic rationale i had when trying to learn one general language at the beginning, It won’t be optimal but who cares? I’d rather be able to build more mediocre things broadly than only knowing one thing. Kinda how you start out with Ryu or Ken on street fighter games even if they are in the middle of the tierlist just because they have a bit of everything on their kit
