FYI: There is a Linux distro that bets heavily on D Lang, Serpent OS.

reference compiler closed source

Is it still closed source? What is the reason?!

Edge is stuff tacked on Chromium. How can it be better?!

Aren't we past that point?

VS Code is Electron based and it can even be deployed in the cloud. We are talking about one of the most popular IDEs.

JS simply does not care.

compose into some crazy one-liner piped chains of commands

Why not something that is completely redesigned from the ground up:

IIRC a startup tried to exactly that... It's wasn't any faster and is actually harder to develop.

EDIT:

Sorry ignore these videos. I don't remember which YouTube video it is. But more importantly Rust + WASM got really better than JS these days.

Yeah, C# and Rust, in their own ways, pretty much covered what D lang set out to do.

What about maintainability of large code bases? JS even with TS tacked isn't so great or at least not as good as Rust.

I am not saying otherwise. But do we still have a say?

I just hope it’s not yet another electron or DOM based editor

Unfortunately, yes.

Interesting take!

My bad. I can't find the actually video but there exits a startup that shutdown because Rust/WASM performance wasn't any better on top of that it's was harder to develop with Rust. But as my edit to my previous comment shows things got better for Rust. It's no longer the case.

True, I myself prefer VS Codium but how many people use it? And some site like Coursera have VSCode on the web and it can't be changed to VSCodium.

I see, makes sense.
