Discussion on: Should you pick C# over JS? Maybe.

I think the poster meant to say that C#, and (vanilla) JS are not really comparable, because C# is statically typed so a better (Apples to Apples) comparison would be Typescript v.s C#. But in complete fairness, you're not entirely wrong. They (C# and JS) can accomplish the exact same end goal. You can make a mobile app with JS or C#, you can make a backend server with JS or C#. So the overall functionality of what your trying to accomplish would still be the same, aside from the language differences.

So why wouldn't they (C# or JS) hold the same spot on the stack? Maybe I'm confused sorry. I apologize.

I wasn’t comparing them. I was saying that instead of starting with JavaScript you could start with C#.
