Heh... but Javascript is so permissive you can just start writing psuedocode and it'll probably be valid!

eval('alert("Yep")')

People should be able to do this, at least for simple programs. We used to do it all the time.

Everyone should be able to do a hello world without IDE

Sorry bro, if you think JavaScript is difficult, then you're just too weak.

Hello World isn't that difficult to write.

He never said it had to be a useful program.

NP, dude. As someone who learned JavaScript in the dark ages, when IE had to be a consideration for everything you did, writing a JS program now is trivial.

MDN ftw, screw stackoverflow.

MDN is better at everything than w3school, except for SEO.

Yeah... Then again I just use the DuckDuckGo bang !mdn and it searches MDN directly.

There's also devdocs.io which can be indispensable when using a lot of popular utility libraries and frameworks in the same project. Just having a single page with all the relevant docs is just a real blessing.

Any time I need to learn something about JS, I go to W3Schools to wrap my head around the basics, then over to MDN for current best practice.

I remember visiting W3S like 10-15 years ago when first learning DOM manipulation etc at uni. But nowadays there's nothing it can give me that MDN can't, that I need to know.

I think I'd be okay up until you pulled intellisense, at which point I would literally deflate like a balloon.

Extremely loud crash as pendulum is rocketed into the ground by all the failed run attempts

He got so upset he put on glasses and grew facial hair!

Because that’s how long he’s been trying to solve it

hey, an empty file is also a valid program. it does nothing. (like me :p)

Learn JavaScript. It's a pretty good language. 👍
