Jargon Polyfill
JavaScript Milengen and Zoomers, Polyfill Thy Hindquarters
It's super annoying, that the javascript compilers out there, including typescriptlang babeljs they do nothing to new functions such as the Map Object and the Set object. So, they are not really compilers, just transform syntax. What they call “transpilers”.
Yesterday, i took half a day to convert javascript object to JS2015 Map, for much more efficient proper code. Today, i had to revert it back, cuz apparently lots browser still can't do Map. So i got more angry at these js “transpilers” namely TypeScript etc really fake compilers.
Of course, the industry monkeys will say u should “polyfill”.
Fill them hindquarters.
If u do, the import
or require
syntax is not even valid pre-JS2015 code.
