Best Coding Language?

Yeah it depends on what you’re making. I like to differentiate them by what type of game developer should use each.

Hardcore developers or large teams making a triple AAA complex game should use C++. It is by far the most efficient and low level commonly used language which will help run advanced graphics and calculations without having as much lag.

Indie developers making games for fun should use python. It’s a lot easier, but is efficient enough to run basic simple games well. It’s a great introduction to programming in general as well.

Small teams trying to make a decent game should use C#. It’s in between python and C++ in terms of level, being more efficient than python but less than c++. It’s however much easier than C++, making it likely faster to code in.

And web devs should use php or html… ofc

Ehh JavaScript/CSS is better for web developers imo

Although I havent done a ton of web development stuff myself so I’m a bit biased

True true. But with CSS you also have to worry about XSS

That’s true

I've coded a whole site on just php before, just so I could test the tcp payload injection

Nice I made a website with some basic html and JavaScript once for fun

Scratch is the best

Python and Scratch are very basic.

I used to code IOT with Arduino and that was the language I used. It is straightforward, but not that much syntax

Scratch and Python are two different things tho

If you actually look at a Python source code compared to a scratch source code you'd be surprised how much they are alike. Python is like a typed-out version of Scratch, that's why there is so much syntax

Scratch was fun as a kid I’ll admit. I remember remaking Fnaf 1 in scratch 1 to 1 with all the original animations and sound and everything and no help, was so satisfying when I got something to work despite the limitations.

Python

Python I’d say is the best language to start with
