Comment on Is a web browser using another scripting language feasible?
e0qdk@reddthat.com 1 day agoMicrosoft had a Visual Basic variant (VBScript) in IE that got some attention back in the 90s; it’s probably just as well that JS won instead of that…
In modern webdev type=“module” is used to indicate an ES6 module and type=“importmap” to include a JSON table of paths to modules. Still basically JS, but the parameter is still used in a meaningful way.

Personally, I think it’s particularly stupid that you can’t use it for GLSL shaders from external files…
