I feel like they bit off more than they can chew. I want to like it, too. But they’re trying to create a whole new JavaScript ecosystem from the ground up, and a lot of it depends on maintaining a seamless compatibility layer that’s always a moving target. It’s not just node. They have Fresh, which depends on Preact, which is a compatibility layer over the React API. Why? To save a few K on bundle size? They have JSR. Why? The sales pitch is great: Typescript that just works. But in my experience, it didn’t “just work”. I tried building something with Fresh and ran into issues immediately. I bailed out.
