Yes, but it's just a trend. Could as well have been written in React. Joke apart, the trend to rewrite any single thing in Go/Rust is scary: why take something

Yes, but it's just a trend. Could as well have been written in React.
Joke apart, the trend to rewrite any single thing in Go/Rust is scary: why take something that is working and standard, and make it new? People have tried this hundreds of times as per hackernews history, and it's mostly not worth it.
However, it is a good training, tutorial for Go.

- eeZah7Ux 6y ago> the trend to rewrite any single thing in Go/Rust is scary Many useful projects get abandoned just because someone made a more popular alternative. In 2-3 years the rewrite in go/rust fad will fade and both the new and the old projects end up abandoned. I'll be downvoted to hell for this: jumping on fads harms the FLOSS ecosystem. Additions: also, static liking and embedding many dependencies harms Linux distributions.
