My language does that, as well as English in which I am fluent. I still find type-first to be impractical.
Also when you write the code, you are usually looking to create a variable, so maybe you type “var” or “const”, right, then you have a contextual name in mind, maybe salary. Then you can make a decision, which type it should be. Maybe “whole dollars”? “Dollars in a decimal number”? Or it could be a complex type in other contexts.
That’s how I prefer to write code. 👍
Maybe it makes more sense to someone who knows more than one language as well, e.g. languages that use a noun-adjective structure, like French, or Farsi. I don’t know. But for me it’s not about language, it’s about practicality. Findability and writability, if those can be considered words, lol.
Maybe, but i speak English that follows adjective - noun pattern. So I’m already conditioned to type - name
