JavaScript sucks. Here’s how to build with Vite and Gleam

Sat, 11 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300

TL;DR

I am not attacking JavaScript. I only wrote highlights of my personal frustrations with JS and how I mitigated them. Most of the article is about Gleam and Vite and goes over the challenges I faced and the reasoning behind my decisions.

Here’s the template itself. You can check the source code and you can begin building.

For years, I’ve felt this pain: the tooling is great, but the language is fundamentally flawed. JavaScript was never designed properly. I mean never. I’ve worried to even touch this language for this exact reason. Web developers spent a decade building increasingly elaborate band-aids to make it work. While TypeScript provides a safety net, it often feels like weak tape holding together a structure that wasn’t built to be sane for developers. I wanted something better that doesn’t change my values.

Hi!

I’m a seasoned developer with over a decade of experience, now diving deep into low‑level engineering where performance, simplicity, and reliability take center stage. Fan of OSS. I love building fast, clean code in Zig, Go, Java, Rust, Python, and C - in that order. I’ve made games in the past, but now I’m doing low-level programming. All my open‑source projects live on Codeberg, while the rest of my repos are on GitHub.

Why Zig is better than Rust (And why it won't stop)

Hi! Over the years of studying computer science, I have tried many languages, such as Java, Go, Rust. But I always come back to Zig. Rust has always been almost perfect for me, but that time I realized how unproductive it was to use. I will prove to you that Zig has a great future.

There are many reasons…

First of all, I don’t want to discrediting Rust maintainers or language itself. Tokio is one of the best async runtimes that currently exists. If you need to make a more battle-tested application, use Rust. Rust is awesome and production ready language.
