TypingDynamically typed, with optional static typing using 'Dim' and type declarations.Statically typed with type inference, strong and safe typing.
PerformanceInterpreted, relatively slow, suitable for automating Office tasks but not for high-performance applications.Compiled to C, C++, or JavaScript, produces fast executables, close to C in performance.
Libraries and frameworksRich integration with Microsoft Office applications, limited external libraries.Growing standard library, supports C libraries, package manager (Nimble), fewer frameworks than mainstream languages.
Community and supportLarge legacy user base, extensive documentation for Office automation, declining active development.Smaller but active and growing community, modern documentation, increasing third-party support.
Learning curveGentle learning curve, especially for Office users, designed for non-programmers.Moderate learning curve, easier for those familiar with Python or statically typed languages.
