  • Rusty V8: 3M downloads, core for custom JS runtimes in Rust. 𝕏
  • Deno_core enables quick JS runtime prototypes with Promise-Future mapping. 𝕏
  • Tools like eszip and import_map solve bundling/import pains practically. 𝕏
  • Skeptical view: OSS builds Deno's ecosystem moat, not pure altruism. 𝕏
