Re: Show HN: Speed up Node.js with Nim native extensions
#2Made this to scratch my own itch. I had a giant web project on which purgecss would take 10 minutes to remove all unused css. I thought rewriting the main functionality in a multi-threaded native extension would make it much faster.
C felt too cumbersome and I personally don't like C++, so that's where napi-nim came in, since I wanted to use Nim.
The native purge-css extension is still in early stages, but napi-nim is already quite usable.
