I dont get it. is it the same javascript that I am learning or is there another version of javascript. If javascript is hard I wonder what they will say when they get into frameworks , libraries and data structures and algorithms . Pls programming is easy, if u understand the concepts.

You are still a kid..shutup and keep learning..
Lol.. you are even learning oohh!, not like you are a progrin...Oboy, keep learning to build your calculator and todoListgrin, when you get to an advance stage, you will come back and delete this trash.

Alright sir. When i get to the advanced stage like recursive functions, closures, primitive data types and reference data types , currying functions, deep copy and shallow copy, immutability, hoisting etc, i will come and delete this trash. So don’t bother yourself

You always see your personal point of view as the general point of view.

You assume Js is easy so u think everyone should feel same way.
You assume mid level languages to be the new low level language so u feel everyone should be subservient and feel same way too..

i bet you cant even solve easy level questions on leetcode and youre a total beginner who haven't done any meaninful project

grin

Alright ! Ka m kwetazie n’nke ikwuru . Javascript is hard ! Is that ok with you ?

wink I didn’t take a course or tutorial to know css is not for me grin.
I just read through some codes I saw online and I knew it wasn’t for me cheesy.
I don’t have interest in anything css or designing generally.
Exactly, I'm just like you, I loathe design.

Figma has made front end easy... Or easier.. graphics guys don invade FE.

I appreciate their creativity.

Yeah, they'd still have to deal with react and/or others, though this is not much of an issue.

I do get it... Just messing with u bro.


Most backend devs who just love logic finds CSS annoying.

Especially when you're styling an element and you're sure what u wrote should work but it doesn't...

JavaScript isn’t hard as long as you keep it away from the browser.

I thought that it was only me that hated CSS. Nothing is ever as it seems, and the worst part of it all is that web browser developers refuse to just agree on how to implement one functionality. Microsoft is just a pain in the ass when it comes to this.

Godforbid bad thing. Anyone who thinks C is hard hasn't met CSS. Of course using C to do something like making web apps is extremely difficult, but using it for embedded systems programming isn't difficult. CSS on the other hand is difficult in it's own niche. Which kind juju be that?

Me, I peacifulli bow out abeg. That kind headache I no fit do. I'll just brush up my python and try my luck with backend.
Re: Why Does Everyone Think Javascript Is Hard? by silento(m): 1:44am On Jul 11, 2022
If u know basic fundamental concepts of programming

You can learn any language and build complex stuff with it under two weeks

Css is also not hard , c is the hardest language I have come across

Am not talking about c improved with libraries
All the higher languages allows u to mess up and get away with it

You see pointer in c language na there most people dey run and that's the most powerful stuff in c language

If u understand pointer in c language very well
Just know u are good to go

Am talking from experience

If u are not in a hurry to make money start programming with c language then try to understand the fundamental concepts of programming

Syntax
Variable
Datatypes and structures
Operators
Decision making
Loops
Files IO
Function and oop then if language supports oop

This are things u need to understand very well and u will see programming is very easy and fun

Lolz, naso guy. C is quite low level though, this is where C++ or rust come into play.
So what kind of dev are you na, embedded?

Why would you consider C the most difficult? pointers? memory management?
C is not that hard to me, however it requires you to implement the basic things that come built-in in other languages, which is where I agree the difficulty really creeps in.

Most people that think that JavaScript is hard don’t have any single knowledge of Java.


For someone to find JavaScript interesting to learn,he/she must have an in-depth Knowledge of how Java works and how to apply it’s OOP(Object Oriented Style of Programming).


Same Applies to Python,C# and C++

How is Java related to Javascript? why should I know java to know javascript?

I still dey try find my levelgringrin. It's been long since I last programmed, I'm thinking of getting back to learning python and C++ Sha. Then I'll try my luck with gameplay programming and backend (maybe). The issue now is that I need money for laptop (I'm on that for now).

And my question remains 'Why should I give a hoot about java to know javascript"?

Yes they will use javascript plus other technologies . If u are finding javascript alone hard, what happens when u combine it with other technologies. And my concern is that it’s not even the advanced javascript topics they complain about, just the fundamentals. Ones they are finished with html and css, immediately they start javascript, u will start hearing javascript is hard, thereby , discouraging others who want to learn. And this makes me angry. I am making this post out of annoyance because I just saw another comment on a Facebook post saying javascript is hard. If javascript ( that has a lot of things abstracted away from the developer ) is hard , what about those writing low level languages like C and C++. Pls u guys should stop making such comments

Maybe they say its hard because it lacks the structure languages like c# has. It is hard to debug compared to other languages. For me, I find it boring. It I need to do some Dom manipulation, I used Google to search what I want, combine that with my knowledge of programming concept I get to the goal.

I won't say its hard. I will way is boring to folks who says its hard. The structure may be a bit confusing.

grin same here.
I just don’t have interest in it

People who do front end work are mainly on CSS HTML n JavaScript. Saying you would use c++ instead of CSS is dumb.

CSS is not even a programming language. C++ is a low level language.

First off, you tagged the wrong person
Secondly, nobody said css is a programming language + using css is a matter of preference.
Lastly, C is a middle level language.
