It would be great to use some emojis in coding.
Imagine how much more readable it would be if you could break a loop with π or return true with π. Or use βfor ifs, or βοΈ for switch (the emoji didn't work for that one). Or use an emoji to represent a custom object?
Maybe the ECMA should get on that!
Edit: I guess you can use emojis for custom objects in js.
Edit 2: β‘ for console.log
You'd still be left with the brackets and braces though. It might make more sense in a whitespace-based language pike Python
I see your point. Personally, I like the brackets and braces, they help organize. Or maybe that's just what I'm used to.
