Re: javascript transpilers

Hi,

I think you are making things worse by adding a transpiler from python code to javascript. Yes you will be working in a language you are familiar with, but you will still need to understand the underlying javascript to debug issues (things will happen that are strange because of javsascripts untyped nature). You will still need to understand the fundementals of DOM handling. Also, because python-browser isn't widely adopted, you will be stuck searching for answers to your problems....I think you are better off learning the amount of javascript that you need to learn and stick with it. 

Regards,

Andréas

I have avoided javascript like the plague. However it seems I have to bite the bullet. Interestingly, there are now a number of Python -> Javascript transpilers.

Where would be a good place to start a discussion on the topic?

I am self-employed  with multiple demands on my time so I cannot afford to allocate sufficient time to learn it let alone undertake formal Javascript training. My hope is to pick it up by osmosis and wonder if a transpiler would help.

Thanks for any pointers

Mike
