Glad to see this kind of stuff written with a strongly typed language instead of Python.

Why, they wasted months evaluating with an obsession for statically typed languages that have so far not produced anything more quickly or markedly better than that which others are producing with less pedantic languages.

Static typing should be viewed as a tool for long term prosperity/health of a codebase rather than competing in the short term with a Python/s (etc.) - Modern one's can, but static typing isn't always obviously useful until it is.
