    Looks awesome, will keep this in mind - every so often you need to create complex documents in code, and it's always a pain. Doing it with a familiar modern programming interface w…

    In terms of "when you would use it" - it doesn't necessarily solve a different problem than npm. I think it arguably solves the same problem more effectively (though it is certainl…

    HTTPS imports will continue to work and be supported in Deno. However, as we observed their usage in the wild, a couple problems became clear: 1.) Duplicated dependencies - project…

    Thankfully JSR won't be capable of a left-pad situation where packages can be unpublished - published packages are immutable[1]. As for the potential for disagreements over whether…

    The new scope owner would be able to update "@cocacola/foo" and publish new versions (previous versions would be unaffected).

    This is probably a marketing bug on our part. While we did want to design for TypeScript from the outset, you can definitely happily write and publish plain JavaScript code on JSR.…

    I think this is mostly right - "superset" in that JSR modules can depend on npm modules, and projects using npm can use the npm registry and JSR together. The bottom line we'd want…

    That does get to be a mouthful! But if you wanted, you can of course do: yarn global add jsr so that subsequent installs could just be: jsr add @oak/oak

    We do intend to take a more editorial approach to scopes, and assign scopes to users in a way we think is more intuitive for end users of JSR. We have reserved some obvious scope n…

    As JSR develops, you can expect to see more features like those of dnt start to show up in the npm compatibility layer. We've also been exploring how to create a good DX around sim…

    I know it's hard to know this since not everyone has access to JSR yet - but it's incorrect to say that adopting JSR (as a module author or consumer) will result in breaking change…

    Hi there - Kevin from the Deno team here. Thanks for starting this conversation - the recent reduction in regions is part of an ongoing effort to drive down the cost of the platfor…

    I think the ecosystem is inching in this direction. There are already some interesting PoCs out there using Tauri (Rust based) and the deno_core Rust crate.

    The usage of the word "ideal" in the 2021 post was probably not ideal :) The accessibility and diverse ecosystem of JavaScript, owing to its status as the lingua franca of software…

    User-level access control (like ACLs for authenticated users) or something else? Feel free to share longer form thoughts here and I can make sure we keep this concern in mind.

    I was surprised by the quality of the results from Claude, I hadn't used it until recently. I asked it for strategic advice about playing a game of Magic: The Gathering and it gave…
