The general idea, I think: Run something like this for low latency development. Edit, save, see results, repeat. In parallel, run the TypeScript compiler to eventually display type errors, inform your IDE with what it needs to deliver great completion, etc.

The Typescript compiler already generates the JS that we need, so nothing gained.

  you don't care about speed, we get it if things like swc does not exist then deno would have to use tsc, which is slower and contradict with being a replacement to nodejs, which is what tsc runs on

    The judge is still out there if Deno will ever matter on the great scheme of things. But what do I know, I am a big fan of vanilajs, great framework.

      that doesn't matter, I don't use deno either. The point is that this makes it possible.

        Probably, just like plenty of other cool frontend stuff that keeps trying to be the next best thing. But I don't mind, after all where would all those consulting gigs to port back to boring tech originate from? We need to keep the economy wheel turning.

        In my observation, the people who complains about kool-aid are often the ones who are obsessed with kool-aid. They may not drink it, but they learn about where the stuff is sold, what's in it and everything. Why do you even give a shit dude? Use what you like and let other people do their things. What's with all these snobbish comments about vanilajs and this industry? They are a dime dozen and don't make you worth listening to.

        I give a shit because at the end of the day I occasionally have to give support to magpie developers even when I rather be busy with something else.

        Actually, if you have one, I can think of some use for it.
