So... what's the status? If there needs to be done some other things too (idk, maybe update the other language versions of the website) I can try helping. I speak English, Russian and German. |
Hi. There are still pending review comments. Please review and accept/reject. |

Hello @smith558
Sorry but I don't see any accept or reject buttons. Maybe I am missing something? |

@thelissimus I wouldn't add https://www.scala-js.org just yet as the project seems too small at this time to warrant adding to such a general article

@smith558 I would argue the opposite. I think Scala.js is mature enough to compete with Kotlin or Dart. My points:
- Many Scala libraries (including major ones) also support Scala.js, such as Cats, ZIO and Circe.
- The JavaScript platform is actively supported by the guys at Scala Center, which are the official Scala compiler developers.
- No problems with interoperability, both with JavaScript or TypeScript.
- Big frameworks or bindings for popular frameworks, such as Laminar, Tyrian, Slinky and scalajs-react.
- Scala.js is more than 10 years old. Which is older than some of main languages in the list.
Let me know what you think. If you're still not convinced, no problem, I will gladly remove it from the list. Also, thank you for spending your time evaluating the languages and reviewing them!
