If I knew rust, gladly! Or just make worm from @codic12 great instead!

Ainât he left Rust in favour of some weird obscure language though?
That sounds reasonable if you are into C. I also tried qtile because of python. I guess at some point it is worth spending the extra time to build up your wm config and then stick to it. I havenât made up my mind yet. Now I am into trying awesome for a couple of days, but donât really want to learn lua in detail, just modify existing scripts if they are simple enough.
I am not a proficient coder, but I can read and modify small scripts.
Why would anyone use C (in which indices start at 0) to write an interpreter for a scripting language where indices start at 1? This fact alone tells you that such a person is not right in the head and is not to be trusted.

Oh God, now i need to create ClownScript 
indices should start from infinity backwards, thatâs the only right way!

I donât trust clowns, either. They are funny, but if you use their programming language, youâll just get trolled.
C is the language of POSIX. Itâs intimately connected with Unix and Linux. Itâs something you ought to learn sooner or later, if for no other reason than for culture (but there are plenty of other, more practical reasons to do so, too).
I learned first Pascal/turbo Pascal which I think is close to C but itâs been many years back. I am not that old but no teenie for sure 
the exam on coding was on a piece of paper, handwritten code.
Now am looking into python and c++ because of work and collaborators. But c++ is horrible to read and learn to my humble opinion.

Not too obscure, and not weird at all, but yes, because I got tired of Rustâs shenanigans.

Youâll never learn C++, no person alive knows it. It expands faster than anyone can learn it. Youâll become proficient at it, youâll write complicated code in it, but youâll never stop learning it. Itâs a great, very practical language, but ugly and too big. C, on the other hand, can be a footnote in a book about C++. Itâs a tiny language, easy to learn, but difficult to master. And once you know C, learning Assembly is not such an impossible task as it may seem.
Itâs nothing like Pascal, though.
I think they tried to teach Pascal as an entry level coding language for getting key concepts like variables, functions etc. having in mind to get us into C along the way.
I have the Stroustrup C++ book but I never read it. 
I generally have a hard time learning coding, I always start with motivation and after reading a couple of pages and doing exercises I drop the ball. Itâs the same for python. I guess I am doomed at only writing/modifying small scripts.
Who uses Pascal nowadays? (yeah I know, thereâs Delphi) You may as well learn Cobol, youâll get paid better to do software archaeology on old systems running Cobol software.
There is a reason C is still used nowadays, more than ever before.
A yeah and Delphi, forgot about that. That was not nowadays, that was back in the 2000s. Just saying that is my coding background, now I am trying focusing more on python in general. Perhaps C could be something.

âŚand have it use Brainfuck as an embedded scripting language, in which you do all config. Itâs even easier to embed than Lua, and about as frustrating to use, except for entirely different reasons.

Thatâs a great idea, however iâd fork it to change one thing!
Lua has got to be better than emojicode

alright peps, I took me forever to figure this out. But there are widgets, and not that difficult to run once one finds them⌠I can only recommend this site, really cool stuff and easy to install.
Ye he as. I was only say to make worm great, is not in rust anymore sadly
