I'm making an app with a Typescript+React front end and a Go back end. While in local development, I serve it with Vite. Could I use Deno in place of Vite+Node?
It was just a search away. https://docs.deno.com/deploy/tutorials/vite

Looks like most of the backend is written in Rust. Must be a bummer working on a JS runtime, and not being able to test it out at such a scale.

The V8 engine is written in C++ not JavaScript. Building high-level languages/tooling in lower-level system languages is a very common (and sensible) practice.

The Javascript and Python ecosystems, somewhat ironically, have begun using rust for their tooling, because the actual language is too slow. Aside though: IMO python is good as "glue" between low level code. JS... I don't know man.
My dream language/environment would be something that is ubiquitous, has a straight-forward learning curve, has a REPL, and empowers dev productivity - like python - but then, if i should choose, there would be an additional straight-forward path for me to push my code thhough some compilation process in order to supercharge the performance/speed of my code - like Go or Rust, etc...Basically let me choose to employ m…
Clojure is probably closest to that right now.

That's Java. You can work in the REPL, and when you put your code in a file and launch it it runs fast; very fast.

Interesting; i guess i have a rabbit hole to dive into. Thanks forvthe suggestion!

I can't deny the performance and scalability of Java. But I've never been a fan of the need to be so verbose when coding for it. Also my memory of Java is from the late 90s...so maybe I'm missing something but I can't recall there ever being a REPL in Java. So I guess TIL :-)

I believe this is essentially the goal of Mojo [0][1], at least for ML/AI development. [0] https://www.modular.com/max/mojo [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35790367
Another rabbit hole for me to discover! Thanks!

That is what Scala claims to be. https://www.scala-lang.org/
Scala has its own downsides tho. It is a "big" language in the sense that because it tries to do everything, there are too many ways to do one things.

Not only is there now a REPL, but the language is not at all what you remember from the 90s.
