numjs VS node-gyp

BTW: you might want to add support for typed arrays.

See: https://github.com/xenova/transformers.js/blob/8804c36591d11...

This is really old, but added as part of the shape of the vector as well: https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs/blob/master/src/dtypes...

NumJs is a JavaScript library inspired by Python's NumPy. NumJs, while not as comprehensive as some of the other libraries on this list, supports multidimensional arrays and contains fundamental mathematical operations and functions.

The first repo has one core contribitor who hasn't been active since June 2018.

I believe it could be possible for JavaScript to be a viable language ecosystem, but there is dire need for cohesion, collaboration, and longevity. As it stands, there many potentially viable projects strewn across the NPM landscape like old, discarded toys.

I'm not aware of an initiative, let alone ethos, in the JS community that comes anywhere close to something like NumFocus.

This could work as an alternative https://github.com/nicolaspanel/numjs

The benefit of having it in JS is not speed but portability and access to the JS ecosystem of tools. Having the code run in the browser without needing a complex setup is a huge benefit for sharing demos. Node.js provides a way to use native code as well and it's quite commonly used https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp so there's no reason you couldn't use those same or similar libraries in a JS implementation.

It is still possible to execute binaries made in other languages such as C/C++ by linking it dynamically as Native Addon Modules in Node.js using tools like node-gyp. But the execution in those case is done by the operating system, not the JS Engine.

create a native Node package using node-gyp

These are the bare minimum. You can also target other API levels like @nodert-win10-au, etc. You'll need to set up node-gyp with Python and Windows Build Tools and install the Windows 10 SDK corresponding to the version of the NodeRT package you pulled in.

I assume it's use of node-gyp, the native plugin system.

https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp

I got it from here. Using -std=c++20 gives me cl : command line warning D9002: ignoring unknown option '-std=c++20'
