I would love that, I wrote Swift for many years for iOS. I don't have the bandwidth to do it, if I can review contributions if someone wants to try.

6/ 👀 Want to see the detailed analysis, methodology, and code examples? Read the full breakdown at davideme.dev/articles/cru...

5/ Key findings:
🥇 S Tier: TypeScript, Python, C#
🥈 A Tier: Kotlin
🥉 B Tier: Go
👎 C Tier: Java, PHP

What does this mean for your next project? The choice of language isn't just technical – it's economic. More code means bigger PRs, more bugs to hunt, and higher maintenance costs.

4/ But it's not just about lines of code. I also measured "DRYness" – how much code you repeat. TypeScript and Kotlin led with 45% unique lines, while Java and PHP fell to 35-39%.

3/ The results:

TypeScript & Python: ~500 lines of code ✅
Java & PHP: ~1000 lines of code 😳

That's 2x more code for identical functionality. In a world where every IDE has AI agents, fewer tokens = better productivity.

2/ So I decided to find out. I implemented the same REST API using identical OpenAPI specs across 7 languages: TypeScript, Python, C#, Java, PHP, Go, and Kotlin.

Ya hemos llegado a la parte de los aliens

Tercer día de Kotlin, como te echaba de menos, viejo amigo.

Ahora hacer los challenges a las 10PM con el cerebro frito del día, vas con un nivel de dificultad más.

Lo hice en Kotlin, pero vi gente resolverlo en una spreadsheet o en R. 😅
