I agree with him. The typescript community is very unprofessional for going around spamming repos because some project they don't use or contribute too has removed their favorite language from the project.

Believe it or not, but JS vs TS really comes down to personal preference. Turbo is for client side JS and it used in a Ruby framework. Why is it so surprising that Ruby programmers want their other code built in a dynamic language?

If you work decades in a dynamic language you get good at maintaining, debugging, and developing in dynamic languages.

It's also worth noting that Turbo users don't interact with it via JS, it's whole purpose is to create interactive web applications without JS. You apply data attributes to HTML elements and the framework manipulates the DOM based on server responses.

A person using Turbo and upgrading to this version wouldn't notice a difference.
