The truth about programming is that the language isn’t really that important

I have had the thought that many languages have bindings for Raylib, so that lowers the bar a lot.

Beyond that, I can see a lot of problems. I already could use Raylib and a few other types of frameworks/libraries (UI, webui, TUI, fantasy console, scripting, microcontroller stuff) potentially, so any other language has to allow more/better options than that. Particularly as I don't really have ideas for those (with few-or-no tools) right now to start there.

Alternatively, it’s a dirty language, but PHP is supremely usable.

For your consideration, a moment of Master Shake to represent me (alternate 1, alternate 2)
