   @faassen@fosstodon.org I agree, use what ever works for you.
   And code the way you want - if it works - it works.
   
   My only criteria for coding - is that the language and toolset needs to be open source.
   Other then that I pick what ever language that gets the job done the fastest for what I need.

     Use your favorite hammer. The hammer you are familiar with and feel comfortable with.

     If you want to learn to use a new hammer or don't have a hammer, many will recommend theirs, all with good arguments!

     It is rare there are constraints so your hammer doesn't work - your hammer may not run on a platform or not be fast enough, for instance. But mostly you will be fine using your hammer.
