I thought this was the release where the built in sqlite got its experimental tag removed, but I don't see it in the release notes. THAT'S got me excited more than Temporal. A stable API, huge utility and one less dependency.

#1226.2.0 is already out, why link to the previous release? https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v26.2.0 What I would expect with the inclusion of temporal, is having a section on nodejs docs about Rust addons, alongside the C and C++ sections.
That's on me - I saw v26 was released, but didn't realize they'd already done a point release in the ensuing 2-3 weeks!

#13Earlier quoted context omitted.
/s ? Bun is not yet (ever?) compatible with Node. I'm sure if Node JS could trim the fat with breaking changes they'd be fast too
I expect bun to run almost everything that node runs these days. They have an extensive test suit to ensure that. Even the complicated NextJS runs with Bun: https://nextjs.org/conf/session/nextjs-bun Do you have a source for your claim?
Maybe if you start from scratch with a new project, but when migrating an old project it's definitely not a drop-in replacement. I try once or twice per year, but it's not worth the effort when the upside isn't that big.

#14Node JS team should look into bun and make progress. They are somewhat stable, but bun have lot of features and is more performant than Node.
They should the unexpected and vibe code node to zig. Or Odin for the kicks.

https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v26.1.0 is particularly cool as it added initial FFI support.

#17Also the release that drops typescript transforms: https://github.com/nodejs/typescript/issues/51
(I’m not disagreeing to remove it. It just took me a while to find out what happened to it)

Looks interesting, what's their revenue model? Or how do we know it won't be abandoned in the near future?

Oh hey, they're the people behind Oxlint and Oxfmt: https://oxc.rs/
I moved some projects over to those from ESLint + Prettier and while the compatibility isn't 100% (I didn't need that), and the time to process a codebase went from like way over a minute with the old tools to a few seconds with theirs.
