VoidZero: Building a Unified Toolchain for JavaScript
- elvennn 2y agoIs it only about speed of the toolchain? I mean, speed is very much needed but is there any other benefits for end users? > On top of our open-source projects, we will offer an end-to-end JavaScript tooling solution specifically designed to meet the scale and security requirements of enterprise environments. I'm wondering what it will mean. Will there be a paying, closed source 'end-to-end' toolchain?
- rk06 2y agoFrom the wording, it looks there would be some closed source tooling. But not sure what or how it will integrate
- CharlieDigital 2y agoI think it's one of those things where the fragmented toolset itself holds back faster evolution of the ecosystem. When Tool A doesn't play nicely with Tool B, teams end up wasting cycles. Ideally, in a unified toolchain, everything plays nicely and the whole ecosystem evolves faster, more stably.

- rk06 2y agoCongratulations! This looks like a big accomplishment. TBH, I don't know how to feel about getting involved with VC money. But I acknowledge, oxc and roll down require big investments and donations isn't a reliable source of income

- odie5533 2y agoNever understood why there are so many Rust-based JS tools like Rsbuild, Oxc, SWC, Rolldown. They all seem identical.
