I’ve recently had to help the wife with some VRChat “Udon” language.
I mean I get it, all the stuff is like the underlying shit in a parser I wrote years ago to speed up execution. And looking up the name for that, it’s an abstract syntax tree.
It’s just I don’t know why you would try to write stuff in it directly. All the tutorials have this mass of on screen spaghetti for “if a=45 then b.visible=false”.
It’s like everyone gets this idea that coding is hard and a bunch of text, and then they spit it out on screen so no none of us can understand it at first glance.
I heard there was a programming language where you programmed a tree, that you could only manipulate manipulate in a “IDE” that looked a bit like Microsoft Word and saved the “source code” as a binary file.
…there are languages that aren’t written in plaintext???

“No-code”, scratch, etc
I only code in emoji
Is this you?
I take it back
I’m sorry
I’m so, so sorry
Wouldn’t you rather want to code in this? https://github.com/Gen-Alpha-Inc/skibidi-lang
I’m going to retreat to my safe space and write some shim code in C now, thx

I was going to post the whitespace programming language but this wins
