Announcing the Deno company!

• deno

  448 93,007 9.9 Rust

  A modern runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.

  

Deno does also provide a library-style Rust API that allows for embedded JS / interop / etc, which is where stuff like the Tokio dependencies come into play mostly. They have a basic example of usage of the Rust API that you can see here.

• V8

  55 22,671 9.9 C++

  The official mirror of the V8 Git repository

  

With all due to respect to boa which is a great project, it really doesn't seem even have the massive optimization of v8 as an explicit goal. v8 directly compiles JS to native code, in real time.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• esbuild

  325 37,351 9.5 Go

  An extremely fast bundler for the web

I thought this was a big deal until I recently found esbuild (https://github.com/evanw/esbuild). It compiles my backend projects in 10s of milliseconds (effectively instant compile times). So now I just run esbuild ... && node ... and I have TypeScript support. It'd still be nice if it was built in, but it'd only be a minor convenience.
