Heyy, I’m learning programming and trying to choose a focus, I saw you can make web/backend w node, desktop (bloatware but discord uses it so if it works it works), games (not AAA and not optimized for performance but it shouldn’t matter for indie too much) Is there anything that compares? I wanna focus on one thing instead of spreading myself over a ton of languages, I do feel js is interesting for this, but I’m just starting out, so looking to hear some thoughts of people more familiar with programming.
Web apps are probably the most accessible way to distribute games. I dislike Javascript. But I only write code that processes text and files. I’m not your intended audience.
No. Not the most anything. As a sibling commenter noted, no lang is king / queen. They all have their pros and cons. For native apps, learn a C variant or Rust or Go of something. Depends on your platform.
