Would be nice if node packages could be packed up in ZIP files so to avoid the security/metadata tax for small file access on Windows.

I like the idea of it mocking the file system for tests, but I feel like that should probably be part of the test suite, not Node.
The example towards the end that stores data in a sqlite provider and then saves it as a JSON file is mind-boggling to me. Especially for a system that's supposed to be about not saving to the disk. Perhaps it's just a bad example, but I'm really trying to figure out how this isn't just adding complexity.
Are people still building new projects on Node.js? I would have thought the ecosystem was moving to deno or bun now
I don't really understand what the value proposition of Bun and Deno is. And I see huge problems with their governance and long-term sustainability. Node.js on the other hand is not owned or controlled by one entity. It is not beholden to the whims of investors or a large corporation. I have contributed to Node.js in the past and I was really impressed by its rock-solid governance model and processes. I think this an…

I'm not convinced that allowing Node to import "code generated at runtime" is actually a good thing. I think it should have to go through the hoops to get loaded, for security reasons.

loud people on twitter are always switching to the new hotness. i personally can't see myself using bun until its reputation for segfaults goes away after a few more years of stabilizing. deno seems neat and has been around for longer, but its node compatibility story is still evolving; i'm also giving it another year before i try it.
