My take from reading the blog post was that the Deno Company's entire thesis is that the developer community will increasingly be moving away from these older abstractions and towards web-based abstractions, and Deno is positioning itself to fuel that migration. GP's comment addresses this directly; it seems rather on-topic to my reading.
- 40four 6y agoFair enough. But I don't see it as the community will be moving away from older approaches. The old ways will always be there. I see it as this is a on-ramp for web developers to get into systems programming. The reality is there is a huge wave of new developers in the last decade who entered into programming through web. I guess the OP sees this a 'threat' to his way of doing things somehow, but I don't think it's a threat at all. Normal to feel that way though. These tools are meant for web developers, and if you are not one that's okay. There is probably no good reason to make the jump unless you are just curious or bored. Last sentence of the blog post: "The Deno company hopes to enable the millions of web programmers out there to maximally leverage their craft in other domains."
