#2Being able to allow custom behaviour via JS/TS in Rust is definitely something that I wanted to explore too.

I understanding wanting to call out to Rust from JS/TS, but I don't think I understand wanting the reverse. Isn't a major goal of Rust not to have "custom behavior" that is invisible to the compiler?

Imagine you are building a game in Rust where players can write mods. Those mods could be written in JS/TS while the game is written in Rust.

Presumably Deno is a use case where you would want to write rust that hosts js/ts safely

It of course doesn't need to be a game. VBA macros in Office and AutoLISP in AutoCAD are two examples of scripting environments on large compiled applications that allows users to customize and automate behavior, outside of gaming. Hell, you can point at Emacs and vim as examples too.

I wasn't aware of a pt2, thanks for the link.

Building a data ingestion pipeline that scales horizontally but leaves the ingestion rules up to your customer in the form of a ts module that implements an interface? There’s plenty of opportunities to allow your runtime to be controlled via scripting.
Or a function host that executes jobs at scale? You only need to program the security, sandboxing, scheduling, and distribution of functions that can be invoked.
