A generic vocabulary that covers all applications sounds great until you find out that there are multiple ways to represent something and which one is "right" is completely arbitrary

@volpeon You can do it, I believe in you.
Using a tool like @fedify makes it not so bad.
I made a little serverless app that renders Fediverse posts. Probably a lot simpler than whatever you're thinking, but I found it not impossible to work with.

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip there are 14 competing standards

That aside, I wouldn't even be sure what programming language to use.
- TypeScript or JavaScript? I already got enough of that shit at work. No thanks.
- Haskell? Can't use that anymore now that I've used Koka.
- Koka? Has no official I/O. It would be doable because FFI is easy, but hm...
- Go? I don't like Go at all.
- Python? No.
- Never tried Rust, but it looks daunting.
- C#? Feels very enterprise-y -

@mezzodrinker That was in fact the first programming language I learned when I was 12 or so

@volpeon I dunno. I know you said no JS, but it sure is fast to develop things in it. If you use it well it also isn't half bad. I think if i'd use it the way i used it at work, i'd hate it, too. But writing vanilla is fun i think.

- C#? Feels very enterprise-y@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip i would actually suggest trying out dart. most folk will only use it for flutter, but its a very strong standalone language as well. its very flexible and imo fixes some very important design issues that almost all OOP implementations have

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip have you ever tried or looked into swift?
@tromino I haven't
