Python Vs. Javascript - Which Is Better?!

In this video I'll explain the pros and cons of Python and Javascript and tell you which I would pick to learn today.
We'll look at:
- How Easy Are They To Learn
- How Easy Are They To Code
- What Are They Each Good At
- Community and Resources
- Job Outlook
- My Final Pick
After you watch this video you'll have a clear understanding of what each is good at and should be able to decide which to learn...

Hi !! It's my first time here and I have a question. You said that Kivy doesn't do very well with mobile development. Can I ask you, why ? I just watched some videos where you talk about Kivy and you made a tutorial. I'm starting to build and inventory app to put in production, the idea is to capture clients, so I'm talking about an app that works, not only for academic reasons. The idea is an app that works in Windows and Android due the type of clients. What do you recommend me, which framework use ? I'm working in this with some friends and our background is from data, so, our development experience is basic.

Kivy is ok...it actually works great...the problem is the developer community isn't there. The documentation is crummy, there aren't a ton of useful tutorials out there. If you use it and like it, that's great and you'll be fine.

People should stop shoving python everywhere. Don't get me wrong, python is a great programming language but every programming language has a place. You should not do any form of front end development with python. Python is great for data science, Machine learning, computer vision, general scripting and some backend web development, but not for making apps, (Web, Mobile or PC's), games, high performance processing, robotics, embedded systems etc.

Isn't that pretty much exactly what I said in the video? :-)

If I'm pretty comfortable with Python, and I'm interested in front-end development, should I learn JS or keep going with Python? Also, is ir possible to integrate a Python file to HTML/CSS as you would with JS? Thx, BTW 😅

[@Codemycom]

you should pick up some JavaScript. you can integrate some python into html if you’re using a framework like django or flask…but not completely.

You said the next video was Python vs Php but it turns out to be vs Ruby. Is Ruby same as PHP?

[@Codemycom]

Next video is next week...

[@ClusterSeries]

python vs rust ? or maybe start a rust playlist ? I really like the tkinter playlist. I started with nothing. I had zero knowledge of python when i found your tkinter playlist, now back in my country i now teach python. All thanks to you. :)

[@Codemycom]

Amazing, awesome to hear it!

nice

Thanks!

Will it be ok if I learn JavaScript. I intend to go into cloud computing. Please advise.

[@Codemycom]

of course it's fine

[@jorge1869]

I love both

me too

[@laurentreynaud4404]

combine python with javascript? yes, with python's dash library 😎

:-p

Python vs TypeScript would have been a brilliant comparison. Python is better unless I need something that has to run in the browser 😂

[@Codemycom]

Isn't TypeScript basically just Javascript anyway?

[@lhard123l]

Python runs in browser in minimum 3 different ways

What happens to pyscript?

It hasn't yet been fully developed, last time I looked.

Don’t compare Apple with oranges

I didn't lol

[@godfather_1994]

You compare a scientific computing language with a client side scripting language for web development

[@carbonwolf6995]

​@@godfather_1994 but the comparison isn't for people that already know this information. Comparing apples to oranges to a blind person over the phone is still useful if you've no idea what either of those things look, feel or taste like.
