As opposed to the famously stable and robust JS ecosystem.

Though it feels like the web tooling is thankfully moving away from JS/Node

EG webpack in js => rspack (rust) typescript in typescript => typescript in go (the loss of bootstrapping is a bit sad but worth it)

The author didn’t care to himself, just merging enormous PRs with “lol” tweets about how github doesn’t display all the changes because there are too many.
