Hello there !

I want to code a little incremental game just for me and some friends, and i started prototyping this in Go (because i know how to use it) but i was thinking that maybe run it in a browser and then use typescript would be better

I have no experience in making games and in javascript, i mostly code for backend and math stuff (my favorite gui is a terminal), and when i need a real gui i use pure html page edited by backend

So i was wondering what would be easier between learning making game in Go, or learning JS/TS for an incremental game (pictures and numbers and text, maybe little animations), and if javascript is still relevant to learn

Thanks !

(Also im a student, so my knowledge of the professional dev world is quite limited, forgive my approximative wording :b)

    I find coding fun and relaxing, so I say learning it is fine.

    One piece of advice when learning, try very hard to grt over the “this has probably been done better before” mindset.

    Its ok and good for learning to try remaking an existing thing as an exercise. The goal isn’t always making the thing but exercising the skill.
