I don't know Lianja and have nothing against it. The question of C# vs JavaScript was asked by Denis.
I personally don't have any drive or motivation to learn a new technology. I support my .NET application and my VFP 9 application until the last customer stops paying for support. Then, I will turn off the light in my office :)

>And then there's Lianja, which takes most of pain out of web design. You still have to design the page, but it's in a visual designer, things that must be set are set through properties, not in CSS, etc. The web part runs on JavaScript, but the developers only part in this is to handle triggers (a control's value changes, etc.). The saving, deleting, filtering etc. are all methods already hooked up to the UI for you.

>>Hi Denis,

>>First, I admire your desire to learn other technologies and improve your product. I wish I had such a drive and motivation.

>>Now, regarding C# vs JavaScript. I have been programming in C# since 2005 (I have a web application that works as an add-on to my VFP 9 application). I can say that C# is not that difficult. As a language. And given that I am at the bottom of the technical skills on this forum, this speaks a lot about C#. In fact, I think C# compiler is better than VFP 9 compiler. The difficult part, IMHO, is creating a UI. And if I were to upgrade my VFP 9 app, I would go with the web application. And for that you need good web design skills and probably other skills. My understanding is that Angular is helpful with regards to the UI. I don't know and not even attempting to learn Angular (no motivation no drive); so I am speculating.
>>I do use JavaScript (via jQuery) in some of the page.
>>
>>Conclusion: I still support my web application built on .NET and C#. And C# is not a problem to learn.

>>HTH
