        Incredibly powerful type system λλλ

        And the best part, those two interop better than in native code.

      You can even compile Fortran code to wasm and run it on a web browser. Who need Javascript’s puny 64bit floating point precision when you can have Fortran’s superior 128bit floating point precision?

        No, but GUI frameworks can generate it for you. Same goes for DOM access, for which there’s normally only a JavaScript API.

        So, you’ll likely want to read JS, when researching what events or properties you can read/write for certain HTML nodes in the DOM, but with a mature GUI framework, you should not need to write any JS.
