Yeah I think it certainly helps that I have Rails experience coming back to it and easily picking back up. However learning it at 0.14.3 vs 5.1.4 doesn’t really make a difference. There’s no inherent advantage in the version you started on. Sure learning 5.1.4 helps if you have Rails experience but Rails today is as easy to pick up as it has ever been.
Ha so on the name, I’m transparent at least. I’m no longer a programmer but am a business customer for teams building on JavaScript. I think they have much opportunity and suffer from lack of convention in their day to day work.
Agreed re: that last bit, as a JavaScript fan. I think we’ll see a dominating convention or two emerge over the next few years. Maybe (selfishly, hopefully) not quite as opinionated as Rails but the current landscape is a bit of a mess.
