What is the best way to write a program?

Question

In contact with

I have a lot of music and recipes for all sorts of delicious things stored in my bookmarks, but there is no banal filtering by groups / users in the bookmarks section (I am silent about the normal search)
And I decided to write a small program for filtering and searching for VKontakte bookmarks, since the API of this functionality is available only for standalone applications. But then the question arose before me: in what language should I write?
The choice fell on several:

1. delphi
   
2. c++
   
3. .net
   
4. c#
   
5. python
   

(write if I forgot something)
Which of the languages ​​has the lowest entry threshold?
I read that you can write gui applications in php . How effective can such a method be? Here, after all, you need to deal with the program itself, since I already know php ... I
myself tend to python, since there are several examples of working with the VKontakte api on the github, and you can also use python for the web ...
I know the VKontakte API - I worked with it on php and javascript
Advise what to choose?

Answer 1

cpan Net-VKontakte-Standalone
and
cpan VKontakte-API

Answer 2

for Windows, it seems to me a good option to write on Windows Forms (C# / VB.NET), I think for api vkontakte there is a ready-made lib for .net (although it’s not difficult to write your own). Also for Windows Forms there are already a lot of ready-made controls and it is not difficult to write the first gui applications.

Answer 3

Isn't it easier and more convenient to write a browser plugin? Especially since you are familiar with JS.
And the proposed list is a holivar topic :) If we talk about the application, then in my opinion it will be easier for a PHP-scholar to learn Java, although I don’t see the point in it at all.

Answer 4

I would recommend python. The entry threshold is not high, and you can develop your idea to even a local Django web application

Answer 5

PHP would not be recommended for creating GUI applications. Faced it already. It will be the same for you to master C# or writing a GUI in php. So C# is better, at least it is specialized, and you will discover something new for yourself. In addition, after php, C# is not difficult to understand and learn.
As for the plugin, I would recommend implementing it in JS. It seems easier to me..

Answer 6

Python. The entry threshold is really low, even a lamer like me can figure it out =) There are a lot of different modules - you can always find the right one. There are few non-obvious things, and those that are are easy to learn =)
Although, of course, I'm exaggerating... I just love Python, that's all ;-)

Answer 7

Python and PyQt are good options. I tried it, I liked it.
C# is .Net. The second option, the rest we discard Delphi, sadly RIP, and C ++ is too complicated for a beginner and writing a GUI on it is HELL!!!

Answer 8

python + VK API

Answer 9

charch;
printf("Enter some character: ");
scanf_s("%c", &ch, 1);
This is how it should work. Read here:
