Start here https://github.com/hotwired/turbo/pull/972 and then https://github.com/hotwired/turbo/pull/973

Tldr someone moved a popular repo from typescript to JavaScript, the negative response was quite overwhelming.

The speed of a single-page web application without having to write any JavaScript

Ahahahahahahaha! ๐Ÿ˜‚

The fact is that I actually rather like JavaScript. I'd go so far as to say it's my second favorite language after Ruby. Yes, a distant second, but a second none the less. This wasn't always the case. But after we got proper classes in JavaScript, and all the other improvements that flowed since ES6, it's become a real joy to write.

Is it just me or is the tone here unnecessarily aggressive?
