I grew to dislike mods and ever growing features. Lately I'm experimenting with Swift Playgrounds and I start liking it very much precisely because lacks a lot of features but its still capable do a lot.
So many features and linters and tools end up building a huge cognitive overhead, which is the primary reason I haven't been touching JS since a few years. The JS world piled up so me sh*t in order to make the working with JS something that is not, that I found myself not having energy and time to do something other that setting up tools and frameworks.
What I want is to be able to start coding like start writing an article in a Word document and Swift Playgrounds is getting there. XCode was good too but wasn't anything special, Swift Playgrounds is amazing.
I'm especially excited for WASM, so maybe I can just write everything in Swift eventually.
