Node alternatives (Bun, Deno)

@Jeremy Bowman (Deactivated)

Bun just hit version 1.0 and has been getting a lot of buzz. How much if any appetite is there for exploring the value in using one of these?

  • There’s interest, but also concern about having so many popular tools bundled in as custom implementations (especially test framework)

  • May be a good experiment for a Hackathon

5 min

TSX?

@Ben Warzeski (Deactivated)

  • Hackathon PR updating component to use TypeScript

  • Get community feedback on PR, use that to create ADR (will supersede this one)

  • Write documentation on TypeScript in component best practices
