HN gods, an off topic question.
Would Deno become the new Node?
Do you see a vibrant ecosystem building around Deno?
What I am interested to know primarily is, is the architecture / stack / goals and vision that resulted in Deno viable in the long term?
- zodiakzz 6y agoDeno's main selling point over Node.js seems to be some dubious sandboxing. Unlikely to be compelling enough for people to rewrite their applications from using Node's stdlib to Deno's. Personally, it makes me cringe to see hard-coded HTTP URLs in source code files for loading dependencies. They present it like we're stupid for using package managers all this time. What used to be a simple command line option (changing a package repo) is now a thousand file edit. Excellent.
