SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews. SaaSHub helps you find the best software and product alternatives
A big part of my work revolves around JavaScript tooling, and as such it's important to keep an eye on the ecosystem and see where things are going. It's no secret that recently lots of projects are native-ying (??) parts of their codebase, or even rewriting them to native languages altogether. Esbuild is one of the first popular and successful examples of this, which was written in Go. Other examples are Rspack and Turbopack, which are both Rust-based alternatives to Webpack, powered by SWC ("Speedy Web Compiler"). There's also Rolldown, a Rust-based alternative to Rollup powered by OXC ("The JavaScript Oxidation Compiler"), but Rollup itself is also native-ying (??) parts of their codebase and recently started using SWC for parts of their codebase. And finally, there are Oxlint (powered by OXC) and Biome as Rust-based alternatives for Eslint and Prettier respectively.
Start from example section on the turbo.build provides one of the examples that involves Next.js usage. It is a Turborepo starter with Next.js
Install nodejs: (I highly recommend using a node version manager like fnm) and to install a recent node version (current long term support is 16+)

Project mention: Implement a Simple Calculator Android App by Reusing Logics in Rust via JavaScript-WASM Interfacing | dev.to | 2024-05-14The binding of Rust (WASM) and JavaScript is done with the help of wasm-bindgen and wasm-pack -- https://github.com/rustwasm/wasm-bindgen/tree/main/examples/without-a-bundler
Notably by projects like OXC and Napi-rs, and these projects combined make for an absolute powerhouse for tooling. A lot of the tooling I work on have to do with some kind of analysis, AST parsing, module graph crawling, codemodding, and other dev tooling related stuff; but a lot of very AST-heavy stuff. OXC provides some really great projects to help with this, and I'll namedrop a few of them here.

Currently, I am using ESLint for formatting of basic things like spacing and quotes. However, those rules were deprecated with v8.53.0 and moved to @stylistic/eslint-plugin. But they recommend Prettier or dprint.
Yeah it doesn't look like this is AST-aware at all.
If you want to do queries that understand the grammar, https://github.com/getgrit/gritql is closer to what you're looking for.
Ex. here's how you would search for your example of looking for a string unless it's inside a string constant. [0]
grit apply '"this_string" => `new_string` where { $match <: not within string() }'

Pleasantly surprised to see Predrag show up as a reviewer, but at the same time not at all surprised:
- The [Firebase technical screen](https://startupandrew.com/posts/how-firebase-interviewed-sof...) would have been much easier with something like this, as it was Just Another Optimization Problem™. Part of me wants to try it again with Picat!
- He's doing other very interesting things with programming languages, e.g.: https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall

Project mention: 3 years of fulltime Rust game development, and why we're leaving Rust behind | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-26I've worked on Ambient Engine and now on the Bevy engine. I totally agree with these points, very valuable. I only make some comments from my professional (audio) perspective:
We need the highlight author's affirmation of cli. Rust's tui (ratatui) is great. I used it to make Glicol-cli [1]. If you are a Linux user, you are welcome to test the music production of the code.
Speaking of game audio, I actually think rust is perfect for audio. I have also continued to develop Glicol recently, and my recent goal (starting tomorrow) is the bevy_glicol plug-in. I want to solve bevy's audio problem on the browser.
All in all, even though I've had my share of pain with ecs, I still think rust is very valuable for game and app development, maybe not multiplayer AAA, maybe practical apps.
