A linter like Prettier can take several seconds in large codebases while the one by Rome (rome.tools) takes fractions of a second, because the former is in JS and the latter is in Rust. If I'm a linter user, I really don't care what the linter is written in, because I'm never going to open up the source code to look at it. It likely exposes a configuration file which is agnostic to any programming language, and that is what I will primarily be editing. Same thing with Webpack vs esbuild or swc, the latter two are simply instantaneous while Webpack can take minutes, even, to build an app. That it's in JS does not matter to me since I don't care about Webpack source code, I only care about what the tool itself does.
