How much do I like programming in Javascript you asked? Every time I have to write curly braces I get heart palpitations if that gives you a clue lol
I've automated a lot of my workflow with Nim so far, and built some really cool stuff. To date, it's all been desktop applications. Unfortunately, there's work that can only be done in the browser and I resisted making Chrome Extensions for months because I didn't want to go through the pain of re-learning and using JS again. I need to have scripts that auto-magically do things like: -validating schema markup on a page| ---|--- -counting the number of times certain words appear on a page| -displaying and counting the characters of a page's title tag and meta description| I had a eureka moment today and thought "hmmm.. couldn't I just use Nim and target the JS backend"? Well let me tell you my friends, it works. And it works beautifully. It almost feels illegal, like I'm SUPPOSED to be writing in JS. That's all I wanted to share really. Chrome extensions are REALLY simple to make, there are TONS of chrome extension tutorials out there. I just used this guy's tut and it was all I needed to start building something pretty cool: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ipa58NVGs_c&t=669s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ipa58NVGs_c&t=669s) Perhaps this can be another creative outlet for some of you guys, or even a potential revenue source ;)
