• X6

  14 5,353 9.2 TypeScript

  🚀 JavaScript diagramming library that uses SVG and HTML for rendering.

  

I have been enjoying using X6 (https://github.com/antvis/X6) which is a very feature complete library for building drag and drop node/diagram editors. Most of the documentation is not in English but I found the sample code very easy to follow.

• deno

  448 92,907 9.9 Rust

  A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.

  

This feat: denort binary #9041 used to exist. No longer. I'm pretty sure Node.js doesn't have such capability either - Node.js download doesn't even ship with just the executable - npm and npx are in the download zip - and those files need to be modified to even use npx without installing locally or globally.

  Incredibly fast JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager – all in one

  

Bun has issues with Streams API implementation ReadbleStream reads to completion in server, does not stream #1886. Deno doesn't that I have encountered.

pkgbld (because it is my builder for small libraries :) )

typia (because it helps to validate with such low effort if you already on typescript)

  Cybernetically enhanced web apps

  

Svelte (because of great DX and small footprint, BTW excellent Typescript support)

• Refine

refine because making CRUD app has never been easier

• proposal-temporal

  90 3,120 9.4 HTML

  Provides standard objects and functions for working with dates and times.

  

Temporal is pretty stable these days, and will become an official JavaScript standard. It's very well thought out. I'd recommend just using the polyfill.
