This is an experiment to try setting up basic technical requirements with different languages.

I want to reflect on the different difficulties i faced, and deliberately run into issues

I want to try:

• installing a certain version of the language, does it need a virtual env like python?
• installing a library, it there a package manager
• versioning dependencies
• setting up a logger, and then trying to setup a json structured logger
• importing code from another file, or module
• doing a http request
• parsing json to a domain object
• write a test
• setup a lint, or formatter
• deploying it to a server

This is focused more on the programmer experience just as much as the language. So i think more modern languages will have a better programmer experience such as rust, and golang. I think node, and older languages like python, and maybe c and c++ will be bad.

Languages I want to look at:

• python
• node, TypeScript
• rust
• go
• java
• kotlin
• elixir
• c
• c++
• zig
• julia
• ruby
• scala
• swift
• php
• shell
• c#
• Dart
• bun
• deno
• perl
• Ocaml
