A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

I agree with DHH that the JS ecosystem is the most brittle ecosystem ever.

Granted, I haven't built on all ecosystems out there but I've touched plenty of them. JS takes the crown.

Building Farcaster

JS code bases have a ridiculous amount of dependencies and everything needs to be compiled since the JS you write on your code base isn't actually compatible with the browser so it needs to be turned into JS efficient for the browsers to use and on top of that now everybody uses TS which isn't understood by browsers so it has to be compiled to JS
