Line 1: Even though triple scripts are [[NOTJS\|not JS]], let's discuss JS briefly. JavaScript, as a language, is "Smalltalk for the masses" (even if they don't know it). Unfortunately, many people (including [https://www.crockford.com Crockford]) decided to wage a bizarre and unnecessary war on <code>this</code>. Unlike ~~JavaScript~~the [[Enterprise JS]] community, ~~triple~~triplescripts.org encourages programmers ~~scripts~~to embrace <code>this</code>. Triple scripts are unrepentantly about promulgating and promoting ideals that are shared with or inspired by Smalltalk; viz. ''[[The repo is the IDE]]'' and [[selective reification]].
