Deno 2.8 from deno.com
252 by roflcopter69 10h ago | | |

Discussion (115): 10 min

The comment thread discusses various JavaScript runtimes such as Deno, Node.js, and Bun, comparing their features, performance, and ecosystems. The community debates the impact of acquisitions on open-source projects like Bun and the compatibility issues between these runtimes and npm packages.

Deno is a JavaScript runtime
Bun offers faster web request serving compared to Node.js
Node.js has a stable ecosystem and supports TypeScript
Bun's chaotic nature doesn't necessarily affect its performance

Counterarguments:

As someone who has optimized by reducing/batching heap allocations, 2x seems within the realm of possibility, depending on the exact circumstances.
That being said, iirc, node also has more hooks for things like observability than bun does
Deno had an awesome story with the sandbox and ease of import for third-party dependencies. Sandboxes feel pretty commoditized now
