She should learn ruby instead

>>61418598
Yes, she should learn C like a normal person

>>61418498
This, JS is completely fine for a newbie

>>61418498
gotta love diversity quotas

As long as she learns the current version and not the fucked up ES5 version she's ok. It's basically the same shit as everything else.

no, however teach her to do the

"use strict" at the start of her code

what this does is prevents undeclared variables from Working

because for some reason Javascripts thinks that if you mistyped a variable, it's better to create a new global one instead of telling you about it

Do this >>61418937 OP

>>61417930
I make 80k and primarily use javascript and ruby, don't listen to /g/ for everything

>>61419454
But then you're using JS and Ruby

>>61417930
should fuck her

>>61419454
>muh money

Not everything in life is money.

I would rather make a 1/4 of that doing embedded systems and keep my dignity.

>>61417930

Nope. Marry her.

JS is fine as a first language.
Have her read Eloquent JS and tell her to setup ESLint with sane configuration (airbnb for example)
Then cry yourself to sleep because she'll fuck Chad instead of you
